KB Sigal Prishtina recorded its fifth straight win in group D. The BIBL champions defeated BC Levski 2014 103-75 away and secured the first place in the group. This means that the game against Peja next week will not be important for their standings but will be such for Peja′s one. Levski on the other hand will hope that Kozuv will defeat Peja tonight and then The Blues will have to win Kozuv by around 30 points. Generally Sigal had a great shooting night which helped the team to build a big lead in the first half and then to keep it.

 

After Levski led 3-2 Sigal started to show why the team is on a great run of wins. The visitors responded with a 22-6 run to go up by 15 with less than six minutes played. Dardan Berisha was on a roll as he hit four straight triples while Willie Kemp had two. Then Levski managed to have three good minutes and cut the deficit to 7 but after one quarter Sigal were up by 11. The visitors started on a 10-0 run after draining new three-pointers. After that they controlled the score and led by 23 at the break. 

 

In the first half only Sigal hit 12 triples out of 18 attempts with Berisha having 6 of 9. Just for a comparison Levski had 3 of 18 and this is where the margin came from. 

 

Levski had a very good start to the second half and after 15-5 run cut the deficit to 13 points in less than five minutes. Sigal however didn′t allow any more and then continued to lead comfortably. In the fourth period the hosts tried to come closer and did cut the deficit to 11 points with six minutes to go. Sigal though responded quickly and after Berisha hit the team′s first two triples in the second half the match was out of reach.


Dardan Berisha had a monster game for the winners as he finished with 42 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists and 4 steals. He scored 8 triples from 14 attempts and was instoppable. Andrew Warren added 23 points on 5 of 8 three-pointers while Jason Washburn had 18 points and 6 rebounds.

 

Aleks Simeonov had double-double for the home side with 20 points, 10 rebounds and also 6 assists but he shot 8 of 22 from the field. Krum Doychinov played well with 17 points and 5 rebounds as Stanislav Slaveykov scored 14 points.
