In another attack, Jordan Loyd made a mistake, but the guests were unable to throw the ball within 5 seconds and Crvena Zvezda had a decisive attack 15 seconds earlier.
The last attack from the hosts was entrusted to Loyd, but he missed a free kick from under the basket and cost the Serbs a victory.
