Regular Season Round 19: Zadar - Cibona 95-91
Date: February 9, 2019
One of the most interesting games of round 19 was a derby match between two teams from Croatia. Ninth ranked KK Zadar won against visiting Cibona (7-12) 95-91. Cibona was plagued by 30 personal fouls down the stretch. It was a great evening for American swingman Mario Little (198-87, college: Kansas) who led his team to a victory scoring 20 points and 4 assists (made all of his seven free throws). Point guard Luka Bozic (200-96) helped adding 17 points. At the losing side Swedish-Croatian power forward Damir Markota (209-85) responded with 21 points and 5 assists and Josip Bilinovac (191-90) scored 15 points and 6 rebounds. Five KK Zadar and four Cibona players scored in double figures. Both coaches tested many bench players in such tough game. KK Zadar moved-up to seventh place, which they share with Cibona and Mornar Bar. Cibona lost third consecutive game. KK Zadar will play against higher ranked Buducnost (#4) in Podgorica in the next round and it will be quite challenging to get another victory. Cibona will play at home against Mega Bemax and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
