But the visitors never had lead bigger than 63-71 midway through the fourth quarter. That's when Wanamaker blasted off, fueling a 13-0 that gave Bamberg lead for good. He also scored his team’s final 13 points to deliver Bamberg victory. Wanamaker also pulled down 7 rebounds and dished 5 assists, but before he single-handedly decided the game, Bamberg was kept in it by big man Leon Raodosevic, who scored 18 points, and Nikos Zisis who in his 250th Euroleague game collected 16 points and 8 assists. Nicolo Melli collected 7 points and 13 rebounds in the winning effort. Khimki, which is 0-5 on the road in Top 16, had Alexey Shved and Zoran Dragic score 14 apiece. James Augustine and Paul Davis each scored 10, while Tyrese Rice had 11 assists along with 9 points.

Dragic drove for a layup, but Melli hit a turnaround jumper for the hosts. Khimki went in front again with Rice making a runner and Shved driving a baseline for a layup. After a Bamberg timeout, Augustine was a beneficiary of Khimki's good ball movement and finished with a dunk to open an 11-17 lead. Before the quarter could end, Radosevic had a three-point play and a put-back dunk to get Bamberg within 16-17 after 10 minutes.

Second quarter: All tied at halftime

Melli, who was dominating the boards, answered with a three-pointer, but Augustine scored inside and Dragic downed a fastbreak layup at 21-26.

Rice hit a triple on one end, but Wanamaker followed with a driving dunk on the other. Davis scored inside for Khimki, but Zisis hit a jumper then fed Radosevic for an alley-oop layup and a 34-35 Khimki lead. Davis answered with a three-point play, while Zisis made foul shots and Melli grabbed his 10th rebound and assisted Harris to tie it up, 38-38. In the final minute of the half, Davis and Janis Strelnieks traded easy layups as teams were locked at 40-40 going to the half.

After a Bamberg timeout, Radosevic scored from close range. Petteri Koponen nailed one from downtown for the visitors, but Zisis fed Radosevic for another layup, then drained a step-back three-pointer himself, helping close the gap to 49-51. Dragic then hit from long range for Khimki, but free throws from Daniel Theis and a layup from Strelnieks got the hosts within 53-54. A triple from Theis tied it at 56-56, but Khimki needed less than 60 seconds to put together a 0-8 run during which Boone nailed a long jumper, Shved drove for a layup, and Dragic scored two baskets to make it 56-64 after three quarters.

Fourth quarter: Red-hot Wanamaker rallies Bamberg
