Krasnye Krylya lost to Alba Berlin
Alba Berlin beat Krasnye Krylia 68-72 on Tuesday night at the Universal Sports Hall and finished with a 6-0 record in Group H.
The German side had nothing else to play for in the final week of the regular season, since they had already clinched first place and a spot in the Last 16. After missing out on the next round by losing to Caserta in Week 5, Krylia was hoping to at least finish at an even record, but will say goodbye to the competition at 2-4.
Bryce Taylor paced the winners with 22 points and Lucca Staiger added 13 with 3 triples, while Patrick Femerling and Yassin Idbihi had 10 each. Berlin finishes the regular season as one of two unbeaten teams in the Eurocup alongside Benetton Bwin. Primoz Brezec had another monster night for the Red Wings with 23 points and 17 rebounds, but ultimately it was not enough against the group winners. Gerald Green added 13 points for the hosts and Brion Rush tallied 8, as Eurocup site reports.
