Regular Season Round 21: MZT Skopje - Rabotnicki 97-93

Date: March 29, 2026
The most exciting game was a derby match between two local teams from Skopje: MZT Skopje (#1) and Rabotnicki (#8). Despite it looked like an easy game for MZT Skopje, those rules do not exist in derby games. It's more the case of honor for local supporters and such games have that special and unique approach you cannot find in other games. Guest Rabotnicki challenged much higher ranked MZT Skopje giving them a very tough game, but finally losing it by four points 97-93. MZT Skopje made 16-of-21 free shots (76.2 percent) during the game. They looked well-organized offensively handing out 26 assists. It was a good game for American guard Mack Smith-McEwen (191-1998, college: W.Michigan) who led his team to a victory with 25 points, 5 rebounds and 7 assists. International guard Marin Petkov (192-2003) contributed with a double-double by scoring 18 points and 11 assists (went 7 for 7 at the free throw line) for the winners. Bosnian-Croatian center Robert Rikic (219-1990, agency: AltusBasket) answered with a double-double by scoring 25 points and 15 rebounds (on 9-of-11 shooting from the field) and the former international Viktor Efremovski (194-1998, agency: PEPI SPORT) added 27 points and 8 rebounds in the effort for Rabotnicki. Five MZT Skopje and four Rabotnicki players scored in double figures. Defending champion maintains first place with 20-1 record. Rabotnicki at the other side dropped to the ninth position with 13 games lost. MZT Skopje's supporters look forward to another derby game next round, where their team will travel locally in Skopje to the arena Cair 2030.
