Railing 23-8 early on, Zalgiris fought their way back into the game and eventually dominated the overtime period having been denied by a three from Vassilis Spanoulis, which forced the extra session.

Brandon Davies led the way with 21 points for the Lithuanian side.

Champions Fenerbahçe secures their tenth straight playoff win by downing Baskonia 82-73 in Istanbul.
