Game recap: At home in their Morača Sports Hall in Podgorica, SC Derby have bounced back after the defeat last round by beating Krka and getting back on the winning track. This is the 4th win of the season for SC Derby in 6 games played and they will be well anchored in the Playoffs Zone when the Round 6 finishes. On the other side, Krka will need to try hard in order to pull themselves out of the Danger Zone near the bottom of the standings, since they still hold only 1 win in their hands after 6 games played an are now in a 5-game-long winless streak.

Key moments: The fans in the Morača Sports Hall have observed a close game in the first half, that ended with a draw (35:35). However, as the two sides stepped back on the court following the big break, SC Derby were the ones to dominated the floor. They made a 22:9 run in the opening 7 minutes of the second half, that gave them a 13-point lead (57:44). As it turned out later in the game, these were the key moments, as Krka did not manage to bounce back again all until the end and did not threat SC Derby’s lead again by the game’s finish.

Man of the match: Kenan Kamenjaš had 21 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal, and a valuation of 33 on his record, as he led his SC Derby to the win over Krka. He is our man of the match!

Can’t trick the stats: SC Derby had 38 rebounds and Krka only 31. That’s what turned the flow of the game their way.
