Buducnost got one step closer to the EuroCup playoffs.

Buducnost didn’t need the help of newly acquired Justin Doellman in order to subdue Trento at home.

On the back of a great entrance, the Montenegrin team beat its opponents 79 – 66 to capture its second win in three games of the EuroCup Top 16.

Coach Aleksandar Dzikic’s players went ahead 31 – 14 in the first quarter and never looked back afterward. Nikola Ivanovic had 16 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists for a team-high 25 PIR, while Kyle Gibson scored 17.

Trento needed much more than Dominique Sutton’s power-performance of 26 points and 8 rebounds and fell to 1-2.

Yesterday, Lokomotiv Kuban remained the only undefeated EuroCup team after beating Cedevita at home.
