BC Akademik Bultex 99 recorded its second straight win in SIGAL-UNIQA Balkan League.

 

The Plovdiv team celebrated its international home debut with good performance and nice 90-69 win over SK Tirana.

 

The hosts controlled the game since the end of the first quarter and thanks to their hot shooting managed to have no trouble. Next week Akademik will visit Kumanovo while Tirana will be looking for its first win against Bashkimi at home.
