Game recap: Soon people will start believing that Budućnost VOLI are unbeatable. Luka Pavićević"s squad have won their ninth win in a row after cracking the resistance of Tajfun in the second half of their home game in Morača and remain positioned at first place after 18 rounds behind them. Tajfun have found themselves in a crisis, since they lost their fourth game in a row and are again back in the battle to avoid relegation, after enjoying their position in the upper half of the standings over the previous few weeks.

Key moments: Tajfun have shown brave resistance in the first half, led after 10 minutes of the game and were behind by only two points as the half time buzzer went on. However, in the second half of the game, their game fell apart. Their contact with Budućnost started slipping away slowly and with 3 minutes remaining in the game, the hosts were up by 13 points. That"s when the game was finally decided.

Man of the match: Who else but Tadija Dragićević? The big man led his team towards the victory with 24 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists, ended the game with the valuation of 26 and earned himself the man of the match honour.

Can"t trick the stats: It"s not typical to say that for the teams that keep on winning, but the victory of Budućnost VOLI this time depended vastly on their brilliant field goal shot execution. They were 37% (10/17) from the three point line and 70% (21/30) and that is what led them past the guests" team.
