Jaylen Hoard has been the steadier presence lately — 54 TIB EFF, 15 points per game and the kind of rim gravity that forces rotations — but Conor Morgan carries Besiktas into this one operating at a different floor. Morgan's 40.5 TIB EFF sits below Hoard's current trajectory, yet 15 points and a willingness to create for others (1 APG) means Istanbul won't be relying on one-way volume. The split favors Tel Aviv's forward when you measure pure efficiency, but these kinds of duals often hinge on roster fit. Morgan thrives in Besiktas's pace; Hoard has benefited from Maccabi's spacing and ball movement. EuroLeague depth can erase any single matchup advantage if the supporting cast shows up.
