Partizan managed to overcome an eight-point deficit after an extremely poor first half and eventually triumphed by 100:86.
Missing this game for the black and whites were Balsa Koprivica and Ognjen Jaramaz. Partizan won the first game in front of their home crowd, but then missed the opportunity to finish the series in Podgorica due to a missed layup by Aleksa Avramovic, leading to a deciding game.
The top scorers for the victorious team were Kevin Punter, Aleksa Avramovic, and James Nunnally. The Serbian representative scored 20 points, while the American duo each contributed 19 points. Jaleen Smith also played a significant role, scoring 12 points (4/5 from three-point range). Yogi Ferrell stood out for the defeated team, scoring 18 points in 16 minutes before being ejected. Yoan Makoundou stopped at 15 points.
According to the ABA League calendar, the first game of the final series is scheduled to begin on May 13, Monday, provided there are no changes.
