Statements: 

Pantelakis stated: "We knew that it would be a difficult game. I think that Dynamo Kursk is one of the teams that will qualify to the final-4. In the first half, we were close to the score but a bad performance on the defense in the third quarter cost us. This year we did our first participation in Euroleague. When we started, didn’t believe in ourselves that we could get a victory. Then we took some time to be confident and now, we can win some games before we continue to Eurocup."

Johnson mentioned: "Of course we knew it would be very difficult to play here. Dynamo Kursk is one of the toughest teams in Euroleague. Our goal was to control defensive rebounds but didn’t achieve it today. Congratulations to our opponent. Now we have to get back to work."
