Hunter heroics pushes Maccabi over Fenerbahce

The visitors wins 77-78.

An hard-fought win for Maccabi Tel Aviv, who stops Fenerbahce three-game win streak (and six in the last seven) and moves closer and closer to a return in the Euroleague playoffs.

It has been a game of several lead changes, with Maccabi leading by 8 with 5 minutes to play in the 4th, and Fenerbahce able to bounce back and take a 1-point lead with 4” to play. But on the other hand Maccabi had the last word with a game winning shot by Othello Hunter.

Former CSKA center led his team in scoring, alongside Avdija, with 13 points, with Aaron Jackson scoring 12. Derrick Williams’ 22 points were not enough for Fenerbahce.
