Regular Season Round 2: Akademik PL - SK Tirana 90-69

Date: October 18, 2017
No shocking result in a game when Bulgarian Academik Plovdiv (2-0) crushed at home Albanian SK Tirana (0-2) 90-69 on Wednesday. The game without a history. Academik Plovdiv led from the first minutes and controlled entire game increasing their lead in each quarter. Academik Plovdiv outrebounded SK Tirana 34-22 including 24 on the defensive glass. They shot the lights out from three sinking 17 long-distance shots on high 53.1 percentage. Academik Plovdiv looked well-organized offensively handing out 23 assists. American point guard Shakir Smith (185-92, college: Adams St.) notched 19 points and 4 assists to lead the effort and the other American import point guard Isiah Umipig (183-92, college: Seattle) supported him with 16 points (on 6-of-7 shooting from the field). Four Academik Plovdiv players scored in double figures. Academik Plovdiv's coach felt very confident that he used 11 players and allowed the starting five to rest. Even 20 points and 5 rebounds by center Endrit Hysenagolli (206-88) did not help to save the game for SK Tirana. American guard Jalil Abdul-Bassit (193, college: Oregon) added 20 points and 4 steals for the guests. Academik Plovdiv will meet Kumanovo (#5) on the road in the next round. SK Tirana will play against Bashkimi and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
