Despite final score suggest that we had a two-side game, that was not actually the case.

Man of the match: James Feldeine was the top scorer in Crvena zvezda mts with 23 points, but it was his teammate Milko Bjelica who was the MVP this evening. Bjelica had 14 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists, while his overall index rating was 26.
Can't trick the stats: The 3-point shot was once again the strongest offensive weapon for Crvena zvezda mts. This time they made 14 three-pointers!
