Regular Season Round 13: Sibiu - Cluj Napoca 67-88

Date: January 4, 2023
Very predictable result when first ranked Cluj Napoca (11-1) smashed on the road 6th ranked Sibiu (6-6) 88-67 on Wednesday. The game was mostly controlled by Cluj Napoca. Sibiu managed to win second period 18-16. But it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. Cluj Napoca looked well-organized offensively handing out 23 assists comparing to just 9 passes made by Sibiu's players. American guard Kasey Shepherd (189-1994, college: Louisiana) fired 22 points and 5 assists for the winners. The former international center Emanuel Cate (207-1997) chipped in 15 points and 5 rebounds. Five Cluj Napoca players scored in double figures. Latvian Roberts Blumbergs (208-1998, college: GCU) produced a double-double by scoring 20 points and 11 rebounds and Argentinian point guard Gaston Whelan (187-1994) added 9 points respectively for lost side. Since the result was very predictable, it gave the chance for the coaches to test many bench players and allowed the starting five to rest. Cluj Napoca have a solid series of three victories in a row. Defending champion maintains first place with 11-1 record. Loser Sibiu keeps the sixth position with six games lost. Cluj Napoca will meet at home Ploiesti CSM (#4) in the next round. Sibiu will play against Pitesti and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
