Date: February 14, 2015
The game between Top Four teams took place in Prievidza. First ranked host Prievidza (28-5) defeated 4th placed Handlova (17-16) 97-84. The game was mostly controlled by Prievidza. Handlova managed to win fourth quarter 29-25. But it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. They outrebounded Handlova 35-24 including 22 on the defensive glass. 27 personal fouls committed by Handlova helped opponents get some easy free throw opportunities. Croatian forward Igor Maric (196-85, agency: PEPI SPORT) stepped up and scored 17 points and 6 rebounds for the winners and Croatian swingman Marko Batina (197-86, agency: PEPI SPORT) chipped in 16 points. Five Prievidza players scored in double figures. Prievidza's coach Krunoslav Krajnovic used a ten-player rotation which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games. The best for the losing side was Serbian point guard Sasa Djordjevic (190-85) with 13 points, 9 rebounds and 7 assists and Croatian swingman Luka Drezga (196-87, agency: XL Basketball Agency) scored 22 points and 4 steals (went 17 for 17 at the free throw line !!!). Prievidza have an impressive series of thirteen victories in a row. They maintain first place with 28-5 record. Handlova at the other side keeps the fourth position with 16 games lost. Prievidza are looking forward to face bottom-ranked Nitra (#10) in Nitra in the next round and are hoping to win another game. Handlova will play at home against SKP Banska Bystrica (#6) and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
