Defeated by Teksüt Bandırma 84-66 in the third-week match of Basketball Super League away game, Anadolu Efes head coach Ergin Ataman stated his thoughts post-game:
"The game we’ve presented tonight and unwillingly played basketball is unacceptable. I congratulate the Teksüt Bandırma team for their outstanding fight and basketball. Tiredness can never be an excuse for us. Lacking three of our creative players breaks our entire game system. We will take immediate action. "
