Great news are coming from Zagreb! Cedevita defeated Anadolu Efes in the 4th round of the Euroleague TOP 16 phase!

Oh, this was a dramatic Thursday evening in Zagreb. Very dramatic! Cedevita and Anadolu Efes played a thrilling game in Dražen Petrović Hall... Cedevita prevailed at the end!!!

When Miro Bilan made an offensive rebound and tipped the ball to Marko Arapović who made a strong dunk, the score was 80:78 for the hosts, with 1:45 left on the clock. Now read this, there were no points at all in the next 95 seconds!!!

Dario šarić missed a 3pts shot for Efes, but Cedevita failed to punish that as Luka Babić got blocked. After that Jon Diebler and Thomas Huertel missed two more three-pointers for the visitors, but in the fast-break Jacob Pullen's lay-up was rejected! Efes tried to score with a quick play... Jayson Granger missed a lay-up!

Cedevita had the ball, Jacob Pullen waited until the final second of the attack to pull up for a long-range two-pointer... He made it - 82:78!!! There were only 10 seconds left until the end of the game, Efes called for a time-out, but it was in vain. Cedevita kept the margin until the end and scored a huge win.
