Game recap: In the only AdmiralBet ABA League game on schedule on Saturday night, Partizan NIS have rolled over Krka at home in Aleksandar Nikolić Sports Hall in Belgrade. It has really been a one-way traffic-like game, where Partizan NIS have dominated the court all game long and in the end celebrated a convincing win. This way, the black and white are keeping their perfect record after 5 rounds in the AdmiralBet ABA League season with 5 wins and not a single defeat suffered yet. They will be placed alone at the top of the standings when the Round 5 finishes. On the other side, Krka will continue their season with a 2:3 record in the lower half of the standings, as the Novo mesto squad keep waiting for their first win on the road this season in the AdmiralBet ABA League.
Key moments: A few seconds before the end of the first quarter, the margin between the two squads was still only 5 points (16:11), but then Kevin Punter beat the buzzer to make it 18:11 in favour of his squad at the first break. The black and white run continued at the start of the second quarter and their lead reached 15 points (26:11) in the 12th minute of the clash. The battle for a new win was over.
Man of the match: The fans in the Aleksandar Nikolić Sports Hall have witnessed the Yam Madar show. He had 23 points, 4 assists, 2 rebounds, 2 steals and a valuation of 32. He is therefore our man of the match!
