ABA League Regular Season, Round 25, Monday, 6.3.2017:
KARPOŠ SOKOLI - Zadar 85:79 (19:24, 22:17, 16:19, 28:19)
Game recap: Karpoš Sokoli made a proper farewell to their home court, as far as 2016/17 ABA League campaign is concerned. In their last match in Boris Trajkovski Sports Hall in this season, the boys from Skopje defeated Zadar and added another home win to their overall score. Since Dragan Nikolić became the head coach of Karpoš Sokoli, only Crvena zvezda mts managed to score an away win in this gym.
On the other side, Zadar missed their first match point to definitely escape the bottom of the standings. Still, they will have one more chance to do so. The only thing they need to do is to defeat Union Olimpija in Krešimir Ćosić Arena in the final round of the regular season.
Key moments: Experienced power forward Bojan Trajkovski was the match-winner for Karpoš Sokoli this evening. At the score of 76:74 for the home team, Trajkovski firstly made a 2-pointer from a pretty difficult position, while then he made a powerful dunk from the fast break. Karpoš Sokoli therefore escaped to 80:74, with just over a minute left on the clock... They have managed to stay in front until the end.
Man of the match: Kendrick Perry is the MVP of the 25th round of ABA League! Karpoš Sokoli point guard shined this Monday evening by scoring 26 points, while he also had 6 assists and 4 rebounds. His overall index rating was 30.
Can't trick the stats: Zadar missed a lot of free throws. They had 26 attempts and made only 15 of them. Those 11 points could have made a big difference...
