Game recap: Zadar have grabbed a valuable triumph on the road against Mega Bemax in Pinki Sports Hall in Sremska Mitrovica. It is the fourth win of the season for the Dalmatian squad, which has taken them away from the danger zone at the bottom of the standings, which is now occupied by MZT Skopje Aerodrom (2 victories) and Mega Bemax (3). The triumph of the guests is more or less deserved, as they have been the team that were in front throughout the majority of the game. However, it could have gone either way, as Zadar have secured themselves a triumph no earlier than in the dying seconds.

Key moments: It has been a thriller in Sremska Mitrovica, where Josh Bostic made the key move with 40 seconds remaining on the clock, as he stole the ball from Nikola Rebić and afterwards Zadar went in front after a fast break with the score of 70:69. From that point on, Mega did not manage to score until the last second, when they lowered their deficit to 73:71.

Man of the match: Josh Bostic! Not only has he stolen the key ball, but he also led his team in scoring with 27 points (3/5 for 3), rebounding with 6 rebounds and ball stealing with 2 steals, while adding 3 assists to his stats, which was enough for the game-high valuation of 29! He is our man of the match.

Can't trick the stats: Of course, since the game has ended with only 2 point difference, the teams have had similar stats in almost all of the categories.
