POST-GAME COMMENTS

Game recap: Krka have scored their 3rd win in the ongoing ABA League season after beating Mega Bemax at home court. The home team used a good momentum in the third quarter to gain the crucial lead in this match and to eventually score a very valuable home win.

Krka’s new head coach Vladimir Anzulović has therefore had a perfect start in his second spell with the Novo mesto squad.

Key moments: Krka were down by two points (49:51) somewhere in the middle of the 3rd quarter, while then the home side made the crucial 13:2 run to take over the lead in front of the last quarter – 62:53. Mega Bemax gave their best to get back in this match and they managed to reduce the gap to just 3 points in the final minute - 72:69... The visitors even managed to defend their basket in the following play, however Krka's forward Marko Jošilo made the offensive rebound on 7 seconds before the end and then scored both free throws to make the final score - 74:69.

Man of the match: This was most certainly the best performance of Paolo Marinelli so far in this season. Krka’s points guard scored 15 points, while his overall index rating was 23.

Can’t trick the stats: Turnovers. Mega Bemax squad can only blame themselves for this defeat as they made 18 turnovers tonight in Novo mesto. That’s just way too many for such an important match.
