Game recap: We know all 4 teams that will participate in the ABA League Playoffs for the 2015/16 season! Those are - Budućnost VOLI, Cedevita, Crvena zvezda Telekom and... Mega Leks! The youngest team in the league downed Cedevita at home court and definitely secured a ticket for the Playoffs! It was one of the best games in this season! Both teams showed some great basketball, while the total number of points just proves how good this clash was. Eventually, Mega Leks had more concentration in the final quarter and seized a valuable win.
Key moments: Four minutes before the end of the game it was 86:85 for Mega Leks... Then the hosts scored 8 points in a row - 94:85! It was definitely the crucial run, as the visitors simply did not have enough time for any major comeback. Still, the important thing is that Cedevita, at least, managed to keep better head to head score against Mega Leks.
Man of the match: TEAM! This was a team win for Mega Leks! The hosts had 6 players with double digits! Luwawu-Cabarrot and Nikola Janković made 18 points each, Ognjen Jaramaz added 15, Nikola Ivanović had 14, while Rade Zagorac and Danilo Nikolić scored 10 points each. It would not be fair to single out any of these guys.
Can't trick the stats: Despite conceding 93 points, Mega Leks showed some amazing defense every time Cedevita were about to bring the ball into the game. Therefore, they forced the Zagreb side on making too many turnovers. The visitors had 21 of them at the end of the game.
