Regular Season Round 14: Derby - Partizan 66-78

Date: January 11, 2026
We could consider it a predictable result in the game between close teams in Podgorica where second ranked Serbian Partizan (11-1) defeated top-ranked Montenegrin Derby (2-11) 78-66 on Sunday. Partizan forced 21 Derby turnovers. The best player for the winners was American guard Duane Washington Jr (190-2000, college: Ohio St.) who scored 22 points. Nigerian center Tonye Jekiri (212-1994, college: Miami, FL) chipped in 15 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists. Bosnian-Croatian swingman Mateo Dreznjak (195-1999) produced 16 points and 5 assists and power forward Aleksa Ilic (204-1996) added 16 points, 5 rebounds and 4 blocks respectively for the hosts. Both coaches allowed to play bench players saving starting five for next games. Partizan have an impressive seven-game winning streak. Defending Serbian champion maintains second position with 11-1 record having just six point less than leader Spartak. Derby lost eighth consecutive game. They still keep top place with 11 games lost. Partizan will meet league's leader Igokea in the next round and it will be for sure the game of the week. Derby will play against the league's leader Igokea in Aleksandrovac and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
