BC Beroe finished first in group A of SIGAL UNIQA Balkan League. The Stara Zagora team hosted KK Kumanovo 2009 in a direct battle for that position and played much better to take 91-70 victory. With it Beroe finishes with 7-3 record while the Macedonian side is at 6-4. 

 

After a slow start Beroe stepped up to take 19-9 lead. Kumanovo responded thanks to Danilo Mijatovic and cut the deficit to 2 as after ten minutes it was only 4. Beroe kept leading in the second quarter when 7-0 run after the middle of it made the difference 10. At the break it reached 11 points while in the second half it never went to single digits again. The hosts started it on a 6-0 run to go up by 17 and in the last period it went over 20 as Kumanovo never really threathened.

 

Beroe dominated under the basket grabbing 20 offensive rebounds compared to only 4 for Kumanovo. That led to 20 second chance points to only 4 for the visitors. The hosts also had 15-2 points advantage in points after turnovers which also was crucial for the win.

 

Aaron Jones had a good game for Beroe finishing with double-double with 21 points and 10 rebounds. Brandis Raley-Ross added 16 points and 6 assists while Omari Gudul scored 11.

 

Danilo Mijatovic was the top scorer for Kumanovo with 18 points as Radoslav Pekovic had 12.
