American swingman Justin Edler-Davis (193-1998, college: CSUB) stepped up with a double-double by scoring 34 points (!!!) and 10 rebounds for the winners and his fellow American import center DeAndre Davis (201-1994, college: Alcorn St.) chipped in 15 points and 8 rebounds. Four Peja players scored in double figures. Peja's coach allowed to play the deep bench players saving starting five for next games. At the losing side Serbian guard Andreja Stevanovic (195-1995) responded with 29 points and 5 rebounds and Milos Latkovic (196-1993) produced a double-double by scoring 15 points, 11 rebounds and 5 assists.
