Peja - Ylli 62-91

Ylli looked well-organized offensively handing out 23 assists. Worth to mention a great performance of American guard Alonzo Verge Jr (190-1998, college: Nebraska, agency: Octagon Europe) who helped to win the game recording 34 points (!!!), 8 assists and 5 steals. Croatian swingman Jan Palokaj (198-2000, agency: BIG) contributed with 11 points and 6 rebounds for the winners. American swingman Justin Edler-Davis (193-1998, college: CSUB) answered with a double-double by scoring 19 points and 11 rebounds (made all of his seven free throws) and the other American import point guard Larry Thomas (188-1993, college: BSC) added 13 points in the effort for Peja. The winner was already known earlier in the game, so both coaches allowed to play the bench players saving starting five for next games.
