This game honestly meant a lot to me because the year before, I had only won 1 game in the EuroChallenge, but to be part of an awesome group like we have on Tofas this year made this win even better. The best part is that we got to advance to the Sweet 16. We play teams from Russia, Sweden and Ukraine. I'm looking forward to all those games and God-willingly being able to advance another round.
