The European champion loses her championship at home.
Euroleague champion Anadolu Zero for the past two years is losing tonight (Thursday) the championship title in Turkey to Fenerbahce - who has not won the title since 2018 when she was coached by Zelko Oberdovic.
Fener won away in the fourth game of the series 80:92 (1: 3 in the series) demonstrating complete control throughout the game.
Anadolu is losing the European title for the first time since 2018. Jan Wesley, who will probably play for Barcelona next season, scored 18 points for Fenerbahce.

The new champion suffered a bad season in the Euroleague and did not advance to the playoffs.
Despite this she finished in first place in the regular season, which gave her the home-court advantage in the playoffs.
The big story is coach Alexander Georgevich recreating what he did last season when he coached Virtus Bologna.
Even then there was a failure in the European factory (Eurocup) and its replacement at the end of the season was known and absolute long before the end of the season.
Despite this he won the Italian championship when he defeated Milan in the final.
This season, too, it is already known that Dimitris Itodis will replace him, and yet he reaches the final series and takes the title.
Were we wrong?
Fixed!
