Petrol Olimpija ended SIG Strasbourg’s winning streak as they prevailed  78-77 at home.

The Key: The hosts stayed hot in the decisive moments, using a 17-3 run in the fourth quarter to erase a 10-point deficit making a complete comeback.

Strasbourg was in the charge from the very start as they won the first quarter 18-16. They didn’t stop there as they had a 37-32 lead after the first half.

The halftime break suited better to Olimpija as their players found the energy to fight back winning this close game.

The Star: Devin Oliver’s double-double was one of the main reasons for tonight’s win. Oliver finished the game with 13 points and 11 boards.

Not Enough: The former Olimpija’s member Zach Wright had a game-high with 20 points, but it wasn’t enough tonight.

Olimpija moved up to a 3-5 record and Strasbourg is on a 5-3.
