Game recap: In the Game 3 of the AdmiralBet ABA League Finals in front of 19.352 fans in packed Belgrade Arena, Partizan Mozzart Bet have used their home court advantage to take the lead in the Final series again. This is the second lead in the Final series for the black and white, after they have been 1:0 up after making a break on the road in Podgorica in Game 1. As the Belgrade powerhouse is now 2:1 up in the series, they only need one more win to crown themselves as the new AdmiralBet ABA League champions and they can already do it on Thursday, when they will be hosting Budućnost VOLI in Game 4 of the series, with the starting time on 20:00. On the other hand, Budućnost VOLI will for sure do everything possible to prevail in the Game 4 in order to bring the series back to Morača Sports Hall in Podgorica for the decisive Game 5.

Key moments: For the last time, the two squads have been tied in the 12th minute, when the score was 24:24 and the game remained close for another minute, when the black and white were in front 29:28. That’s when the Steamroller went on a 7:0 run, which put Partizan Mozzart Bet up by 8 points (36:28) with just a bit less than 6 minutes to go in the second quarter. The hosts kept grinding until the end of the first half and when Tyrique Jones came up a dunk on fast break just before the halftime buzzer, the margin between two squads was 12 points (49:37). Budućnost VOLI fought hard in order to try and get back into the battle for the win, but 5 points of margin was the closest they managed to get in the second half and they never really threatened the lead of the home squad again.

Man of the match: Tyrique Jones might just have been the key player of Partizan Mozzart Bet this time around, as he led them to the win with a double-double, consisting of 12 points, 10 rebounds, 3 assists, and a valuation of 21. He is our man of the match!

Can’t trick the stats: Partizan Mozzart Bet have been shooting from the field with a 56.1% accuracy, while Budućnost VOLI only hit 39.7% field goal attempts. Apart from that, Partizan Mozzart Bet have also outrebounded Budućnost VOLI 28:24 and these two things have certainly been crucial on their way towards the win.
