Yogi Ferrell posted team-highs 18 points, including some key baskets down the stretch, and eight assists to lead Cedevita Olimpija to a 77 – 74 win over Partizan Belgrade in ABA League.
Cedevita fell behind 68 – 72 with 4:36 to play after leading for the larger part of a tight game. Ferrell then hit a 3-pointer and drained the layup for the 75 – 72 following a pair of free throws by Alen Omic. Dante Exum and Mathias Lessort combined for 2-4 from the line but Josh Adams was flawless to make it 77 – 74 with 11 seconds to play.
Exum misfired in his game-tying attempt and Partizan suffered its second loss this season in ABA. The Australian guard was the leading performer of his team with 24 points and six assists, going 4-6 on 3-pointers before he missed the shot to tie the match.
Zoran Dragic had 13 points while Adams finished with 12 points plus five rebounds for Cedevita, now 7-2. Partizan’s Ioannis Papapetrou scored a season-high 17 points.
