MEGA LEKS - Metalac Farmakom 77:64 (21:14, 18:15, 17:21, 21:14)
Game recap: From the beginning to the very end... Mega Leks haven't dropped the lead for a single second in the match against Metalac Farmakom. They eventually won the game, but the price was very, very high. Ognjen Jaramaz suffered a serious ankle injury and he may miss the upcoming Playoffs.
Key moments: The visitors were just refusing to surrender in this match and they deserve to be praised for that. Metalac Farmakom managed to reduce the lead of Mega Leks to 47:45, then to 60:58 and finally to 67:64, with 3 minutes remaining on the clock. But, they haven't scored a single basket until the end of the match!
Man of the match: Danilo Nikolić was the hero of Mega Leks today. He scored 5 key points in the final moments of the game and helped his team escape from 67:64 to 72:64. Young power forward finished the game with 14 points.
Can't trick the stats: If you fail to score a single point in the last three minutes of the game, then it is very hard to expect that you will end up victorious. That is exactly what happened to Metalac Farmakom...
