Regular Season Round 9: Pelister - TFT 83-87

Date: December 6, 2025
The game between Top Four teams took place in Bitola. 3rd placed host Pelister (6-3) lost to second ranked TFT (8-1) 87-83. TFT dominated down low during the game scoring 56 of its points in the paint compared to Pelister's 34. 24 personal fouls committed by Pelister helped opponents get some easy free throw opportunities. American-Syrian guard Stanley Davis Jr (196-1998, college: Morgan St.) stepped up and scored 25 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists for the winners and American forward Justin Gordon (198-1993, college: Wofford) chipped in 22 points and 7 rebounds. Gordon is a former Eurobasket Summer League player, which is considered top international summer league in the market. TFT's coach Boro Smilkovski used a ten-player rotation in such tough game. The best for the losing side was Serbian forward Nikola Malesevic (202-1989, college: URI) with a double-double by scoring 20 points and 10 rebounds and the former international point guard Boban Stajic (185-1993) scored 20 points (went 8 for 8 at the free throw line). Both teams had four players each who scored in double figures. TFT maintains second place with 8-1 record behind leader MZT Skopje. Pelister at the other side keeps the third position with three games lost. They share it with Kumanovo MK. TFT are looking forward to face Gostivar (#11) on the road in the next round and are hoping to win another game. Pelister will play against Tikvesh (#8) in Kavadarci and is hoping to prove to their supporters that this time they can win.
