Turkish League Round 17
A midweek round started on Tuesday with Damiris Dantas and Orman keeping Hatay winless as the visitors returned to being severely shorthanded with Jessica Jackson and Katrina Pardee pacing them in the 95-73 loss. Cukurova was also shorthanded so Marina Mabrey’s efforts were not enough and Ayse Cora and Izmit left with a 76-73 win. On Wednesday, Cankaya University was down a player, but Brooke McCarty-Williams led them to an 84-79 win over Madi Williams and Bursa to avoid getting stranded in the danger zone. Jaelyn Brown helped Antalya rally to a 74-69 win over Danielle Robinson and Tarsus. Sydney Wiese helped her team edge Li Yueru, Dana Evans, and Besiktas 86-84 to maintain a one game lead for the last playoff place while contributing to the situation where five teams are tied on points above them. Another game that went back and forth saw Jessica Thomas and Emma Cannon help Nesibe Aydin have the last run to get past Joyner Holmes and Kayseri 86-82. Galatasaray finalized their new signing before hosting their biggest rivals, but a good game from Myisha Hines-Allen was not enough and Kayla McBride and Emma Meesseman made sure that Fenerbahce left with a 103-83 win.
