Frutti Extra Bursaspor eased past Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul 97-77 (21-15, 19-17, 28-29, 29-16) and tied the Turkish League quarterfinals series at one win apiece.
The decisive Game 3 is set to take place in Istanbul.
Even though Bursa had plus 14 (67-53) in the third tally, Fenerbahce came within 7 points before the decisive 10 minutes of the match (61-68).
Nevertheless, the hosts arranged a game-deciding 10-0 spurt at the start of the fourth and gained a 15-point advantage (78-63), which was too much to handle for Fener.
Andrew Andrews and Onuralp Bitim were outstanding for the winners.
Andrews finished the duel with 23 points (0/5 2PT, 7/9 3PT, 2/2 FT), 6 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 steals, 1 turnover, and 28 PIR, while Bitim had 22 points (2/3 2PT, 6/9 3PT), 8 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals, 1 turnover, and 31 PIR.
