Alexey Shved scored 34 points, but he couldn’t save Khimki Moscow Region from being defeated by Zenit St. Petersburg.

By Eurohoops team/ info@eurohoops.net

Kyle Kuric with 17 points led a balanced effort by the guests who got a 25-19 lead at the end of the first quarter and kept it until the end. The 34 points of Shved are a career high and also the six threes he made are a season-high for the league.

This was Khimki’s first defeat which has now a 4-2 record, behind unbeaten CSKA Moscow (7-0) and Unics Kazan (5-0) and also Lokomotiv Kuban and Zenit which are tied at 5-1. The games of VTB League will resume in December after the end of the November FIBA World Cup qualifying matches.
