After dominating the first half, Ulm couldn't contain Cedevita's comeback in the third quarter and double-overtime, the German club secured the win 101-96 (12-29, 19-19, 31-11, 9-12, 25-30)

In the final seconds, Ulm this time maintained the calm and secured the win with the last two free throws of Klapeisz.

In the second overtime, Semaj Christon was the difference-maker for Ulm, with Cedevita unable to limit his scoring game. Once again Ulm built a six-point lead (90-83) but Cedevita tried to fight back once again, cutting the lead to just three-point thanks to Jaka Blazic's three-pointer.
