Visitors were defeated by KK Zagreb CO 81-74. It ended at the same time the seven-game winning streak of Maccabi T-A. The hosts started the game with a very strong first quarter 28-19. But Maccabi T-A won second period 19-11. However it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. The game was decided in the last minutes when KK Zagreb CO won last quarter 23-17. They made 27-of-32 free shots (84.4 percent) during the game. They shot the lights out from three sinking 12 long-distance shots on high 57.1 percentage. 27 personal fouls committed by Maccabi T-A helped opponents get some easy free throw opportunities. It was a great evening for forward Krunoslav Simon (197-85) who led his team to a victory scoring 26 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists. Center Mario Kasun (213-80) helped adding 12 points and 5 rebounds. American power forward Richard Hendrix (203-86, college: Alabama) responded with 10 points and 6 rebounds and the other American import swingman Keith Langford (193-83, college: Kansas) scored 12 points. Maccabi T-A's coach David Blatt rotated twelve players in this game, but that didn't help. Defending Croatian champion maintains seventh place with 6-5 record. Defending Israeli champion Maccabi T-A still keeps top position with one game lost.
