Three in a row for Teodo
KK Teodo recorded its third straight home win in group A of SIGAL-UNIQA Balkan League. The team from Tivat hosted KB Bashkimi and led from start to finish to take 86-74 victory. It puts Teodo on a 3-1 record and with very good chance to attack the Second Stage in the competition. For Bashkimi however this means trouble as the team suffered its fourth defeat from four games. Now the team from Prizren will need to win at least four if not five from its final matches in order to have a chance to advance further. In the next round Teodo will play at home against Kumanovo while Bashkimi will host Kozuv.
For the first three minutes the game was close but then Teodo stepped up a gear. The hosts made a 14-2 run which put them 11 points up and they kept the difference after ten minutes. The hosts had a good advantage at the start of the second period but Bashkimi came back in the game when a 7-0 run cut the deficit to 3. Still Teodo managed to answer and the difference at the break was 6 points but the match was wide open.
Shortly after the break the visitors again closed the gap to just 3 but Teodo responded with 5-0. Then the hosts kept controlling the difference and a 6-0 run to start the fourth quarter gave them a 16-point advantage. It was more than enough for the home side as until the final buzzer they held on for another win.
Milan Stanojevic was the top performer for the home side with 23 points, 6 assists and 5 rebounds. Petar Kusovac also did very well with 19 points while Nikola Vucurovic had 17.
