Game recap: In the delayed game of the ABA League Round 15, Igokea have outgunned Krka at home in Laktaši Sports Hall after a major comeback in the second half. For Igokea this is an important win in their battle for the Playoffs zone, as they are now on an 11:3 record after 14 games played. On the other side, Krka now hold five wins alongside eight defeats and have to continue to grind in order to achieve their goal and place themselves firmly in the middle of the ABA League standings.

Key moments: Krka have started the game in excellent fashion and were in front by 13 points by halftime. However, that did not stop Igokea on their way towards the win, as they have stepped onto the court in the second half fired up and with aggressive defense they managed to limit Krka to only 7 points in 10 minutes, turning the game completely upside down and entering the last quarter with a 3-point lead. As it turned out, Krka did not manage to stand up again in the final period of the game and Igokea have celebrated a new win.

Man of the match: Who else but Marko Jošilo? The former Krka player shined this time, by adding 19 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 block and a valuation of 24 to his stats.

Can’t trick the stats: Igokea have been dominant on the glass, as they have outrebounded Krka 35:20. That’s what turned the flow of the game their way.
