Basketball-CSKA end barren spell to clinch Euroleague title

BERLIN, May 15 (Reuters) - CSKA Moscow won their seventh Euroleague title and the first since 2008 after inspired performances by guards Milos Teodosic and Nando De Colo propelled them to a dramatic 101-96 overtime win against Fenerbahce Istanbul in Sunday's final.

Ending a long personal wait in Europe's premier club competition, Serbia captain Teodosic racked up 19 points, seven assists and five rebounds to claim his first title after falling short in six previous Final Four tournaments.

Frenchman De Colo, the season's most valuable player and top scorer, led the Russian giants with 22 points while American forward Kyle Hines added 15.
