ABA League 3rd round, Wednesday, 7.10.2015:
BUDUĆNOST VOLI - Mega Leks 71:56 (28:12, 19:19, 8:14, 16:11)

Game recap: Very strange game in Podgorica. Budućnost VOLI had +23 - 35:12 in the first half, but then they simply stopped. They missed 14 three pointers in a row!!! 14!!! Mega Leks used that to return to 55:51 in the last quarter, but Suad šehović then finally made a three-pointer for the home team, while youngster Ognjen Čarapić added another one and Budućnost VOLI regained a double-digit lead - 61:51. It stayed that way until the end - 71:56.

Key moments: Interesting enough Mega Leks opened the game quite good and went in front at 8:5… But, then Budućnost VOLI made 30:4 run and escaped to 35:12!!! The other key moment was that three-pointer made by Čarapić that we have already described in the game recap. That basket helped the home team to regain the control of this game.

Man of the match: He is the most constant player of Budućnost VOLI in this season. When it is difficult, Suad šehović is there to take responsibility and to score key baskets. In this game he was the top scorer of his team with 23 points, while he also added 9 rebounds.

Can"t trick the stats: This was a game of turnovers, and Mega Leks might have broken some negative record. The away team had 29 turnovers in total, while they made 17 only in the first half! On the other side, Budućnost VOLI had 22 turnovers, which is also pretty bad, but it is still 7 less that the opponent.
