Students survive drama in Vienna, Plummer shines once again

(Patria) - The basketball players of Sarajevo's Bosna recorded an important triumph tonight in Vienna, defeating the home team Vienna 88:86 in the 17th round of the regional ABA League.

With tonight's victory, which they barely secured at the end, the Students took a huge step towards qualifying for the Top 8 of the ABA League.

The home team played better in the first quarter, winning it 21:18, but Bosna stabilized through the second period, found a rhythm in attack, and went into halftime with a minimal lead (45:43).



In the third quarter, we witnessed a real seesaw of results. Vienna fought back with points and made three-pointers - especially Glas, while Bosna responded in runs through Plummer and Atić.

However, the Students brilliantly played the end of the third quarter and, after a layup by Joesaar, took a double-digit lead for the first time (72:61).



Bosna maintained the lead in the decisive period, but the home team managed to come back with fast attacks, setting up a dramatic finish.

A 9:0 run brought Vienna within just one point (86:87). Plummer then made one free throw. The home team had a chance to win or force overtime, but fortunately, they failed.



Bosna eventually won the match 88:86 and now has a record of 8:7, holding a position that secures a play-off spot.

For the Students, Alfonso Plummer was once again outstanding with 24 points. Young Jr added 15, Atić 13, Šalić 10, Lopez 9, and Joesaar 7. For the home team, Glas stood out with 23 points.
