Ratiopharm got off to a decent start to capture a 7-point lead (13-6) after Cemaj Christon's two-pointer. Promitheas' tries to shrink the deficit were largely unsuccessful until a late second-quarter push trimmed down the home team's lead to only 1 (32-31).
The Greek team continued their momentum into the third quarter to finish off the period on an 11-3 run to lead by eight (54-46).
The fourth quarter marked a close fight by the teams up until 3 minutes left on the clock when Ratiopharm went on a 10-1 to shrink their deficit to only 4 (65-69). The late surge wasn't enough, however, to capture the third straight win, and Promitheas prevailed in the end.
Kendrick Ray led Promitheas' team effort with 14 points, 2 rebounds, and 6 assists. Nikolaos Rogkavopoulos chipped in 9 points and 6 rebounds while Jerai Grant muscled in 10 points, captured 4 rebounds, and dished out 3 blocks.
Promitheas: Kendrick Ray 14 (4/5 2PT, 2/4 3PT, 6 AST, 5 TO), Isaiah Miles 11 (1/3 2PT, 3/7 3PT), Jerai Grant 10 (4/5 2PT, 4 REB, 2 STL, 3 BLK).
Ratiopharm: Thomas Kapleisz 22 (5/9 3PT, 5 REB), Semaj Christon 20 (9/16 2PT, 3 REB, 4 AST, 5 TO), Fedor Zugic 11 (3/7 3PT).
