It was a Saturday with a lot of games played by teams including athletes of INVICTUS Sports Group, let's resume game by game. Starting from the Adriatic ABA League, in which there were two very important games: Partizan Belgrade (always seaching for a substitute of Acie Law) lost at home against Maccabi Tel Aviv for 78-84 (after leading the first period for 24-17 but reached on a tie at halftime on 48-48): with all the Israeli defense focused to double him, Milan Mačvan scored 12 points adding 4 rebounds for a personal ranking of 8 in 29', while Marko Čakarević played 14' with 3 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 steals. (Watch the video highlights). Zagreb CO won the derby against Cedevita for 96-92, Dalibor Bagaric came back on court after the muscle injury of last weeks, even if only for 2', scoring 2 points (2/2 from the line) more 1 rebound, 1 assist and 5 of personal ranking. In VTB United League, CSKA Moscow dominated Minsk 2006 for 110-60, but the coach Jonas Kazlauska decided to keep the five players who played more against Olympiacos out of the roster to make them rest, as for example Nenad Krstić. In the Serbian League, Proleter Zrenjanin was defeated on the court of Radnicki for 92-71, but the young talent Bogdan Obrenović played a solid game, scoring 10 points with 7 rebounds in 30' from starting five. In Esake Greece League, Olympiacos Piraeus won for 84-89 on the court of Maroussi, but Lazaros Papadopoulos is still recovering after the knee arthroscopic surgery and he was not in the roster.
