Game recap: On Sunday afternoon, Dubai Basketball have been hosting Igokea m:tel at home in their Coca-Cola Arena in a game, that turned out to be their 15th win in a row this season in the regional competition. This way, Dubai Basketball remain at the top spot of the Group A after 17 rounds with a perfect 15:0 record, while on the other side, Igokea m:tel are now on a 7:8 record, and they still need one more win, or at least one loss by Borac Mozzart in order to mathematically secure themselves a spot in the AdmiralBet ABA League Top 8 stage of the competition.

Key moments: It has been a game, where Dubai Basketball have been a better of two squads throughout the playing time. They have been gradually increasing their advantage ever since the 5th minute, when the score was tied for the last time (13:13) and their lead reached 10 points at the first quarter buzzer, when Aleksa Avramović scored the buzzer-beating three-pointer for the lead of his team with the score of 31:21. The same player scored a triple midway through the 3-rd quarter to put his team up by 20 points for the first time (64:44) and after that, there has been no chance of a comeback for the visiting side anymore.

Man of the match: It has been Dwayne Bacon show in Coca-Cola Arena on Sunday night, as he led the Dubai Basketball squad to another precious win with 23 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists and a valuation of 29 on his record. He is our man of the match!

Can’t trick the stats: Field goal percentage, rebounding and passing were the categories where the hosts have dominated the court this time around and despite a high number of turnovers, this has been more than enough for a comfortable win in the end.
