ABA League Regular Season, Round 23, Wednesday, 22.2.2017:
Mornar - MEGA LEKS 81:89 (22:16, 22:28, 11:26, 26:19)
Game recap: This might have been a comeback worth of the ABA League ticket for the next season. Mega Leks were down by 18:6 in the 7th minute of this match, but the boys from Sremska Mitrovica then got on fire, made more than 60 points in the following 23 minutes and had a +15 lead at the beginning of the last quarter - 70:55! Mega were simply too good offensively this evening to drop that lead.
Mega Leks have therefore made perhaps the crucial step forward in the race for the ABA League survival, while Mornar remain at the bottom of the table, with just 3 rounds remaining in the regular season.
Key moments: Without any doubt the key period in this match was the 3rd quarter which Mega Leks won by 26:11! The visitors dominated the court in those moments and escaped to a comfortable lead.
Man of the match: As the season is coming to the end, Ognjen Jaramaz is playing better and better. Mega Leks point guard was brilliant this evening, he had 21 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists, while his overall index rating was 26.
Can't trick the stats: It is simple - Mega Leks played more like a team than Mornar. The overall number of assists proves that. While Mega Leks had 23 assists, Mornar had 17.
