Game recap: In the 19th round of the AdmiralBet ABA League season, Split have outgunned Cibona on the road in Dražen Petrović Arena in Zagreb. The Dalmatian squad have grabbed their 8th win of the season, which puts them on an 8:11 record before the February break and in a favourable position in the Playoffs Race, one win ahead of both Cibona and Mega MIS, at the edge of the Playoffs Zone, with the latter still having their Round 19 game to play.

Key moments: Split have been the better of the two opponents all game long, but for them the crucial one has been the second quarter. They entered the second period with a 3-point lead (16:19), and while the teams have still been separated by only a point in the 13th minute (24:25), the Split went on a 24:6 run over the remainder of the first half, and won the half by 19 points (30:49). The hosts simply did not manage to bounce back in the second half, so these turned out to be the key moments of the game.

Man of the match: Shannon Shorter has dominated the court once more, as he steered his squad towards the win in Zagreb. He finished the clash in Dražen Petrović Arena with 19 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals, and a valuation of 27, and has rightfully earned himself the Man of the Match honour.

Can’t trick the stats: Field goal percentage, rebounding, assists, steals, turnovers… you name it! Split team have been the better of two squads in practically every aspect of basketball game and have fully deservedly grabbed a pair of points in the end.
