Partizan have edged out Zadar on the 78-73 road win in “Krešimir Ćosić” arena. While Obradovic‘s unit held the lead almost from wire to wire, everything was eventually decided in the last four minutes.

With the score being tied at 69, Dallas Moore made a key three-pointer and the hosts were not able to tie the score again. Zach LeDay was the key player for Partizan NIS with a double-double (10 p. 10 r.), while Kevin Punter added 14. Antonio Zordano scored 15 points for the losing side.
