Semi-Finals Game 1: Balkan - Cherno More 91-89

Date: May 9, 2026
Balkan looked well-organized offensively handing out 21 assists. Great defensive blocking was one of the keys in this match when Balkan made 9 blocks. 29 personal fouls committed by Cherno More helped opponents get some easy free throw opportunities. Worth to mention a great performance of international Dimitar Dimitrov (203-1993, agency: 011 Sports) who helped to win the game recording 25 points, 7 rebounds, 7 assists and 5 steals. American swingman Travis McConico (198-1997, college: Charleston So.) contributed with 19 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists for the winners. Four Balkan players scored in double figures. International forward Georgi Boyanov (200-1993, college: USA) answered with 16 points and 9 rebounds and Bosnian-Croatian Ivan Karacic (204-1996) added 15 points in the effort for Cherno More. Cherno More's coach rotated ten players in this game, but that didn't help.
