EuroCup: Aris Suffers First Defeat, Manresa Level With PAOK

Aris lost to Hapoel Jerusalem in a leading match of the first group of the EuroCup and suffered its first defeat in this competition. Vasilis Spanulis' team played well for most of the game but lost its strength in the final minutes. Toliopulos' absence and Morgan being unable to play in the second half due to injury were influential in this decline.

Manresa, who reached the same 4-2 record as PAOK in the group, won against Lietkabelis. The Spanish side scored 80 points while conceding 66, and recorded 22 assists.

In the first game of the same day, the Turkish team beat Skyliners Frankfurt 98-78, earning its second win of the season. The team, which controlled the game from the first minutes, extended the margin with its attack in the final period. Doğuş Özdemiroğlu stood out with 13 points, 8 rebounds and 12 assists, while Shaquille McKissic scored 14 points in 25 minutes.
