Regular Season Round 7: Balkan - Cherno More 102-62

Date: November 16, 2018
Bottom-ranked Cherno More (0-6) tried to put together a comeback for its first victory of the season, but they fell short in the 102-62 loss to third ranked Balkan (5-2) in Botevgrad. They dominated down low during the game scoring 54 of its points in the paint compared to Cherno More's 34. Balkan forced 27 Cherno More turnovers and outrebounded them 32-21 including 24 on the defensive glass. Their players were unselfish on offense dishing 35 assists comparing to just 13 passes made by Cherno More's players. Worth to mention a great performance of Serbian-French power forward Alexandre Gavrilovic (208-91, college: Towson, agency: Duran International) who helped to win the game recording 19 points and 8 rebounds (on 7-of-8 shooting from the field). American forward Mikael Hopkins (206-93, college: Georgetown) contributed with 12 points and 9 rebounds for the winners. Five Balkan players scored in double figures. Forward Georgi Boyanov (201-93, college: S.Alabama) answered with 12 points and 8 rebounds and swingman Veselin Georgiev (192-86) added 18 points in the effort for Cherno More. The winner was already known earlier in the game, so both coaches allowed to play the bench players saving starting five for next games. The victory was the third consecutive win for Balkan. They maintain third place with 5-2 record having just two points less than leader Levski Lukoil. Cherno More lost their sixth game in a row. They still close the standings with six games lost. Balkan will have a break next round, and it should allow them to practice more before next game. Cherno More will play on the road against Beroe (#4) in Stara Zagora and hopes to get finally their first victory.
