Ante Zizic finished with 17 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists across 20 minutes, shooting 6/9 from the field and 5/6 from the free-throw line — yet Besiktas Jk Istanbul could not contain Hapoel Ibi Tel Aviv, falling 82–100 on the road. The Croatian big man was efficient with his touches, converting nearly all of what he attempted. His four assists suggested he was moving the ball and finding rhythm in the short floor, while his nine boards meant he competed on the glass. But it was not enough to slow a 18-point defeat. Hapoel's control of the game left Zizic without enough support around him. When one player's efficiency cannot swing the margin that wide, the team's collective performance has already ceded ground. Besiktas will need a different answer next time.
