Game recap: In the Sunday AdmiralBet ABA League matinee, Mega Superbet have prevailed over Split in a thrilling finish at home in their Ranko Žeravica Sports Hall in Belgrade. Therefore, Mega MIS continue to chase a Playofffs spot. As they are now on a 10:10 record after 20 rounds played this season, with the same number of wins on their record currently as Spartak Office Shoes, FMP Soccerbet, and Zadar, with the latter still having their Round 20 game left to play. On the other side, Split are now on a 6:14 record, with only Krka, Cibona and Mornar-Barsko zlato behind them right now in the standings.

Key moments: Mega Superbet started the game all fired up and with 3 minutes into the game, they already had a double-digit lead in their hands (14:4). They did not stop there and when the first quarter buzzer sounded in the Ranko Žeravica Sports Hall, they were already up by 18 points (32:14). As it turned out later in the game, this did not stop Split from returning into the hunt for the win, as they managed to take the lead after a major comeback midway through the final quarter. They made a 16:0 run in the final quarter, that put them ahead by 8 points (70:78) with 6 minutes to go in the game.

Mega Superbet replied with a 7:0 run and we saw a close ending. When Filip Jović made his steal and dunk performance with 28 seconds to go, the game was tied at the score of 82:82. When it just seemed like the game would go into overtime, Kosta Kondić made an unbelievable game-winning buzzer-beater to hand his team a precious win in the end.

Man of the match: Mihailo Petrović has demonstrated a monster performance, as he led his Mega Superbet to the win over Split. He finished the game with 14 points, 10 assists, and a valuation of 24 on his record. He is our man of the match!

Can’t trick the stats: Mega Superbet have been shooting from the field 56.1% and Split only 44.3%. That’s what made the key difference between the two sides, despite Split having won the rebounding battle decisively.
