Regular Season Round 16: Shumen - Rilski 97-105

Date: January 10, 2026
No shocking result in a game when second ranked Rilski (13-3) defeated on the road bottom-ranked Shumen (1-14) 105-97 on Saturday. Rilski shot 60.3 percent from the field. They looked well-organized offensively handing out 30 assists. Worth to mention a great performance of the former international point guard Deyan Karamfilov (180-1994, agency: BIG) who helped to win the game recording a double-double by scoring 15 points and 14 assists and the former international forward Hristo Bachkov (200-2004, agency: BIG) who added 17 points and 9 rebounds during the contest. Rilski's coach Lubomir Kirov used a ten-player rotation which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games. At the losing side Norwegian-Croatian forward Andrija Blatancic (203-1995, college: St.Cloud St.) responded with 24 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists and American-Jamaican guard Will Ellis (188-1999, college: Queens, NY) scored 24 points and 5 assists. Both teams had five players each who scored in double figures. Rilski have a solid three-game winning streak. Defending champion maintains second position with 13-3 record behind leader Balkan. Shumen lost fourth consecutive game. They stay at the bottom place with 14 games lost. Rilski will meet Lokomotiv Pl. (#4) in the next round. Shumen will play against Levski (#10) and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
