Game recap: In the opening game of the AdmiralBet ABA League Round 22, Zadar have prevailed over Krka at home in their Krešimir Ćosić Arena in Zadar. This way, Zadar have grabbed their 11th win of the season, and an exceptionally important one, as it keeps them on the edge of the Playoffs Zone after 22 games played with an 11:11 record. On the other end, Krka have failed in their mission to grab another win, that would pull them another step away from the relegation zone, as they remain only 3 wins above Mornar-Barsko zlato, with a 4:18 record, with 8 rounds to go in the Regular Season.

Key moments: It has been a game, in which Zadar have been in front for the majority of the playing time, but have never really managed to pull away all until the final minutes. With 3 and a half minutes left in the game, the hosts have still been in front by only 3 points (58:55), but that’s when they went on an 11:2 run over the next 2 minutes and a half and they were in front by 12 points (69:57) with only 52 seconds left in the game. As it turned out, this has been the key period of the game this time around, as Krka did not manage to bounce back again in the final minute.

Man of the match: Tyler Wahl has been the best player of Zadar this time around, as he led his team to the win with 17 points, 7 assists, 4 rebounds, 1 steal, 1 block and a valuation of 23 on is record. He is our man of the match!

Can’t trick the stats: Zadar have outrebounded Krka 39:20 and this has been the key to their win this time.
