The hosts trailed by 3 points at the halftime before their 36-29 charge in the second half, which allowed them to win the game. Cactus made 20-of-25 free shots (80.0 percent) during the game. American players dominated the game. Guard Jordan Forbes (193-1998, college: Salem) nailed a double-double by scoring 30 points and 11 rebounds for the winning side and guard Denzel Livingston (193-1993, college: UIW) accounted for 20 points, 14 rebounds and 5 assists. Four Cactus players scored in double figures. Cactus' coach Irakli Khoshtaria used a ten-player rotation in such tough game. Power forward Raheem Johnson (208-1993, college: Buffalo) came up with a double-double by scoring 24 points and 15 rebounds and point guard Luwane Pipkins (180-1996, college: Providence) added 26 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists respectively for Rustavi in the defeat. Cactus have a solid series of four victories in a row. They moved-up to sixth place, which they share with Rustavi and Mega. Cactus will meet league's second-placed Kutaisi on the road in the next round and it will be quite challenging to get another victory.
