Regular Season Round 13: Ilirija - Crvena zvezda 74-91

Date: January 4, 2026
Everything went according to plan when first ranked Serbian Crvena zvezda (8-3) defeated 3rd placed Slovenian Ilirija (3-9) in Ljubljana 91-74 on Sunday. Crvena zvezda outrebounded Ilirija 42-28 including a 29-16 advantage in defensive rebounds. Crvena zvezda looked well-organized offensively handing out 23 assists. Nigerian-American Jordan Nwora (203-1998, college: Louisville) nailed 15 points and 6 rebounds for the winning side and Nigerian Chima Moneke (198-1995, college: UC Davis) accounted for 11 points and 8 rebounds. Serbian center Boban Marjanovic (224-1988) came up with a double-double by scoring 17 points and 10 rebounds and American point guard Wendell Green Jr (180-2002, college: Auburn) added 11 points and 5 assists respectively for Ilirija in the defeat. Both coaches allowed to play bench players saving starting five for next games. The victory was the fifth consecutive win for Crvena zvezda. They maintain first place with 8-3 record. Loser Ilirija keeps the third position with nine games lost. They share it with Split and Krka. Crvena zvezda will meet at home league's leader Bosna in the next round and it will be for sure the game of the week. Ilirija will play against the league's leader Spartak in Subotica and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
