ABA League has brought some of its famous basketball thrillers into Basketball Champions League. Mega Leks and Cibona played a very exciting game in Sremska Mitrovica, while the hosts were victorious at the end...

One shot decided the winner in the match between Mega Leks and Cibona... And it was a missed shot.

Mega Leks were in front of Cibona by 81:79, but the visitors from Zagreb had the last ball possession. They even organized a very good play, as Paolo Marinelli was left all alone behind the 3pts line in the last second. He pulled up for a three-pointer, but the ball hit the rim and bounced back down to the court. The result stayed 81:79 for Mega Leks.

It was the 1st win for Mega Leks in the 2016/17 Basketball Champions League season, while Cibona suffered their 2nd defeat in the competition.
