Studentski centar started the second half as they continued. Mega was losing balls, and the drive-and-kick basketball of Students brought significant results. Nikola Topic also woke up, scoring several points in a row. Mega returned to a minus-three in the middle of the third quarter, and Dejan Jakara was forced to call a timeout. The team in pink took the lead just before the end of the third quarter, scoring an impressive 23 points in this part of the game.
Studentski centar takes control
Studentski centar started well in the final quarter. Kamenjas scored nicely in a tight space. Borna Kapusta then made a crucial three-pointer for a plus-four for SC. Then came a crazy period of play where teams exchanged points. Luka Bogavac hit a three-pointer that turned out to be crucial for a plus-ten. It was 79-69. Students’ rebounding proved decisive, and it’s not surprising given that the team from Belgrade played without both centers. In the end, the team from Moraca won with a score of 89-82.
The best for the home team was Kamenjas, who scored 18 points, followed by Dawkins with 14. On the other side, Topic stood out with 20 points. In the next round, SC plays in Belgrade against Partizan, while Mega hosts Crvena Zvezda.
