Marcelinho Huertas (191-G-83, agency: Edge Sports) paced Caja Laboral to victory with 21 points. Brad Oleson (191-G-83, agency: Duran International, college: Alaska-Fairb.) had 12 and Tiago Splitter (211-C/F-85, agency: Interperformances) added 11 pts, plus 7 rebounds. In Olimpija, Matt Walsh (197-F/G-82, agency: Arik Krayn Services, college: Florida) was totally the best player collecting 27 points and 6 rebounds. Vladimir Golubovic (212-C-86) nailed 10 pts. Caja Laboral was better team in the opening quarter making 20-26 lead. Nothing has changed after that as the team of Dusko Ivanovic still controlled rhythm of the game. Olimpija had only Matt Walsh on fire, but that was not enough. The Spanish team jumped to 29-41, but thanks to Walsh the hosts closed the gap to 11 until the HT (32-43). Third period was exciting one as Union Olimpija as came to 41-45 and later after 30 minutes of play it was 52-56 for the guests. Everything was open, but Caja Laboral had couple of players in a game mood, which helped it to make 58-65 quick. However, Olimpija did not give and the big turn happened at the halfway of the last period when the hosts jumped to 67-65, after Matt Walsh lay-up. Huertas helped Caja Laboral to complete 0-7 run soon after that, but Olimpija was still in. At the very end Brad Oleson scored one and Marcelinho Huertas netted both FTs, while Becirovic was blocked on the other side and Caja Laboral grabbed very important win in Ljubljana.
