Game recap: A victory against one of the Belgrade giants always means the World in Laktaši and surroundings and this is exactly what Igokea managed to do on the last day of fourth round of the season. This is the third victory in a row for Igosi, which are now officially on a winning streak - how long can it last?

Key moments: Thanks to amazing role of Petar Aranitović, Partizan NIS was in front fort he majority of the game, but Igokea managed to turn the game around in the second half and their comeback began when - their head coach Željko Lukajić was ejected from the bench with 2 technical fouls in 28th minute. Kosta Perović punished the ejection with 2 free throws, but then a 7:0 run by Igokea followed and the home side was 55:50 up in 32nd minute. Partizan NIS was close until 37th minute, when the score was 59:57, but then another, 7:1 run by Igokea followed and everything was decided.

Man of the match: Vuk Radivojević did not have an excellent shooting night with his 2/7 from the perimeter, but his all around performance again pushed Igokea forward when it was the most important. He finished the game with 12 points, 7 rebounds and just as many assists and earned himself the man of the match award.

Can't trick the stats: Teamwork is what made the difference in Laktaši this time - as the guests managed to put together no more than 6 assists, Igokea players collected 15. Enough for the 7 point victory in the end.
