Regular Season Round 13: Timisoara - Voluntari 72-97

Date: January 4, 2023
The most surprising game was another loss of top-ranked Timisoara (8-4) at the home court on Wednesday night. Hosts were rolled over by fifth ranked Voluntari (6-5) 97-72. The guests trailed by 1 point after first quarter, but they stormed back to get the 10-point lead at the halftime and eventually won the game 97-72. Voluntari dominated down low during the game scoring 56 of its points in the paint compared to Timisoara's 30. Voluntari had a 26-14 advantage in offensive rebounds. American point guard Maurice Watson (178-1993, college: Creighton) stepped up and scored 18 points and 5 assists (on 7-of-9 shooting from the field) for the winners and his fellow American import center Eric Thompson (204-1993, college: Pacific) chipped in 14 points and 8 rebounds. Four Voluntari players scored in double figures. At the losing side Serbian center Igor Kesar (210-1992, agency: Mansfield and Associates) responded with 18 points and 6 rebounds and Serbian-Bosnian point guard Nikola Gajic (195-1991, college: SF Austin) scored 9 points and 7 rebounds. The winner was already known earlier in the game, so both coaches allowed to play the bench players saving starting five for next games. Voluntari moved-up to fourth place, which they share with Galati. Timisoara at the other side still keeps top position with four games lost. They share it with Ploiesti CSM. Voluntari is looking forward to face league's second-placed Dinamo B. in Bucuresti in the next round and it will be quite challenging to get another victory. Timisoara will have a break next round.
