2025/26 AdmiralBet ABA League Group A Round 16, Sunday, 25 January 2026:
PARTIZAN MOZZART BET - Igokea m:tel 90:84 (19:18, 21:18, 22:21, 28:27)
Game Recap: Partizan Mozzart Bet continued their impressive run in the 2025/26 AdmiralBet ABA League as they defeated Igokea m:tel 90:84 in Belgrade. It was the ninth consecutive league win for the black-and-whites, who remain firmly in the race with Dubai Basketball for the top spot in Group A.
On the other side, Igokea m:tel missed another opportunity to clinch a Top 8 spot, but their situation remains favorable. They will secure qualification with one win in their remaining two games, or even with one defeat by FMP before the end of the regular season.
Key moments: Partizan controlled the tempo for most of the night, but the visitors refused to go away quietly. Igokea stayed within striking distance throughout the game, never allowing the home side to build a comfortable cushion and consistently punishing any lapse in concentration.
The key stretch came midway through the fourth quarter. Igokea trimmed the deficit to just 70:68 with less than seven minutes remaining, putting real pressure on the hosts. However, that was the moment when Partizan showed their composure. Dylan Osetkowski and Sterling Brown drilled back-to-back three-pointers, instantly restoring control and pushing the lead to 76:68, a swing that ultimately decided the contest.
Man of the Match: Bruno Fernando once again ruled the paint for Partizan Mozzart Bet. The dominant center finished the game with 15 points and 9 rebounds, providing physicality, rim protection, and a constant interior presence that tilted the balance in Partizan’s favor.
Can’t Trick the Stats: With Fernando anchoring the inside game, Partizan clearly won the battle under the boards, outrebounding Igokea by 12, a decisive factor in another hard-earned victory for the Belgrade side.
