Meesseman, UMMC Ekaterinburg win 2016 EuroLeague Women Title

UMMC Ekaterinburg overcame a 12 point deficit in the second half to win 72-69 in Istanbul to defeat rival Russian squad Nadezhda Orenburg in the 2016 EuroLeague Women championship. The title is UMMC's third overall, and first since 2013.

The game story will focus on Diana Taurasi, who scored 22 points for UMMC and DeWanna Bonner who scored 26 points for Nadezhda, but you can read FIBA's recap for that. For us, however, we only care about Emma Meesseman. How did she do?

She played 20 minutes and contributed seven points, 3 rebounds, an assist, a steal, blocked shots, and countless tips and hustle plays and screens.
