Date: April 4, 2025
Another exciting game was again a derby between two local teams from Baku: Neftci (#3) and Absheron (#4). Absheron was defeated at home 77-85 and even the advantage of their own court did not help. Neftci dominated down low during the game scoring 52 of its points in the paint compared to Absheron's 28 and made 24-of-30 free shots (80.0 percent) during the game. They outrebounded Absheron 41-25 including a 29-16 advantage in defensive rebounds. Neftci looked well-organized offensively handing out 22 assists. The game was dominated by American players. Guard Vante Hendrix (196-1998, college: CSUN, agency: Interperformances) fired a double-double by scoring 14 points and 10 rebounds for the winners. Point guard Pat Bacon (183-1997, college: Tampa) chipped in 13 points and 7 assists. Four Neftci players scored in double figures. Neftci's coach Anar Sariyev used an eleven-player rotation and allowed the starting five to rest. Guard Aubrey McAlpine (196-1989, college: RMU) produced 20 points and 4 assists and forward William Jenkins III (203-1996, college: Virginia Union) added 14 points and 9 rebounds respectively for lost side. Neftci have a solid series of three victories in a row. They maintain third place with 11-9 record having five points less than leader Sheki. Loser Absheron keeps the fourth position with 12 games lost. They share it with Sumqayit.
