KK Mornar kept the perfect record in SIGAL-UNIQA Balkan League after recording its fourth straight win. The team from Bar hosted KK Kozuv in group A game and took 91-87 victory in a close match. Both teams fought very hard to win but in the final minutes the home side managed to be the first to score consecutive points and this turned out to be the decisive moment. Then they managed to keep the lead and come away with the victory. With it Mornar lead the group with 4-0 record and are now guaranteed of qualifying for the Second Stage. Kozuv on the other side has 1-3 record and is third in the standings. In two weeks time Mornar will visit BC Beroe while Kozuv will host the champions KB Sigal Prishtina.   It was a high scoring game from the start with Kozuv having the early lead. In the middle of the first quarter things changed and Mornar took over. The hosts even pulled away by 7 points in a short period of time and after ten minutes led by 6 as Glavcev hit a triple at the buzzer for Kozuv.   At the start of the second quarter the visitors hit two more to quickly tie the game. The high scoring continued but in the same time Mornar managed to take a 6-point advantage. Later it became 9 points and at the break it was cut to 7.   A 13-2 run for the visitors shortly after the start of the second half gave them a 2-point lead. Mornar responded well with 7-0 run but then Kozuv did the same. However the third quarter finished with the score tied at 70 points and the game had to be decided in the last ten minutes.   The big battle continued in the fourth quarter as both teams kept exchanging points. With the score tied Miroslav Damjanovic scored a triple with 4.19 left to put Mornar ahead and then for the next two minutes there was no basket. Austin Chatman broke that period with 2 points for the hosts but then Glavchev scored a triple for Kozuv. Then with the difference again 2 points Radunovic was fouled and after scoring the first free throw, he missed the second and grabbed the rebound. Chatman though also made 1 of 2 and after that Sterjov scored for the visitors. Then the American was fouled shooting a three-pointer and by scoring all three free throws, he decided the outcome.    Austin Chatman was the top scorer for the winners with 23 points.
