Additionally, Filip Jovic played only five minutes before feeling unwell and was unable to continue.

He finished the game with 27 points, five rebounds, and four assists, earning a performance index rating of 34. Alongside Mihailo Petrovic (19 points and eight assists), he was crucial to the big win against Buducnost.

It’s also worth noting that Urban Kroflic played his best match in the senior team, scoring 13 points, with four rebounds and four assists (index rating of 20).
