Game recap: It was very exciting in the FMP Basketball Hall this Monday evening. It was obvious from the beginning that details would decide the winner. Every side tried to use their advantages, while at the end it was Igokea who prevailed, mostly thanks to brilliant performance of their point guard James Robinson.

Key moments: Igokea escaped to +11 in the middle of the last quarter – 74:63. FMP tried to answer back and they did reduce the margin to 79:76, with just 28 seconds left on the clock. But that was it. Igokea successfully moved the ball to the rival’s side on the court, where Strahinja Mićović got fauled. He scored both free throws and made the final score – 81:76.

Man of the match: Without any doubt this title belongs to James Robinson. Igokea point guard scored 27 points, while he also had 4 rebounds and 5 assists. His overall index rating was 30.

Can’t trick the stats: FMP can blame themselves for this defeat, as they missed just too many free-throws. The hosts made 12 shots out of 20 attempts.
