Jaylen Hoard briefly put Maccabi ahead from the free-throw line, but Rolands Smits responded with a decisive 7-point burst that the Israeli side could not match.<\/p>\n<p>Smits (7-of-10 FG in 15 minutes) and Jordan Loyd (6-of-10 FG) led Efes with 16 points apiece. Shane Larkin added 14 points and 5 assists, while Nick Weiler-Babb contributed 12 points on 3-of-4 from deep, along with 3 assists and 2 steals.<\/p>\n<p>Maccabi struggled from the perimeter, shooting just 7-of-27 from three, and had a rough debut from Lonnie Walker IV (3 points, 3 steals, 1-of-6 FG). Solid efforts from\u00a0 Hoard (15 points, 9 rebounds) and Roman Sorkin (15 points on 5-of-7 shooting) weren\u2019t enough to change the outcome.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">They got the job done! <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AnadoluEfesSK?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@AnadoluEfesSK<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/EveryGameMatters?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#EveryGameMatters<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/lJjJMTrAUK\">pic.twitter.com\/lJjJMTrAUK<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 EuroLeague (@EuroLeague) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/EuroLeague\/status\/1973112372307865880?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 30, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rolands Smits (7-of-10 FG in 15 minutes) and Jordan Loyd (6-of-10 FG) led Efes with 16 points apiece<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":148,"featured_media":462296,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_spbk_hide_featured":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[199],"tags":[],"rumors":[],"typology":[],"posizionamento":[],"class_list":["post-462297","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-euroleague"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/09\/G2HnEevWQAAniHm.jpg","digistream_id":0,"digistream":false,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/462297","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/148"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=462297"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/462297\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/462296"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=462297"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=462297"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=462297"},{"taxonomy":"rumors","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/rumors?post=462297"},{"taxonomy":"typology","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/typology?post=462297"},{"taxonomy":"posizionamento","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posizionamento?post=462297"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
