ALBA BERLIN STUN SPURS

Alba Berlin stunned the NBA champions, the San Antonio Spurs, with an unbelievable end to their game in Germany with a buzzer-beating floater from Jamel McLean secured an unexpected 94-93 win at the 02 World.

It improves Euroleague teams’ record against the NBA to 46-11 with the Spurs now travelling onwards to meet Fenerbahce in Istanbul on Saturday.

San Antonio Spurs head coach Gregg Popovic said: “There are good basketball teams around the world now . We knew that when we came here. We started out strong, but when I took out my starters, the game shifted. We lacked power and will to win. Of course, We really wanted to win, but ALBA kicked our ass. They did a great job.”
