Thus, the Black and Whites, on the wings of support from the stands, tied their second victory and reached a 6-9 record, while the eternal rival tied its failures and now has 9-6.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the announcement of the eternal derby, we could assume that it would be crazy in the stands. And it really was, banners on both sides, derogatory chanting, and everything else that accompanies such a game was not missing, and you can find everything on our website and social networks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After the first five minutes of the game, the events in the stands really overshadowed what was happening on the court itself, as the duel started very slowly when it came to points. Both teams were extremely nervous, which affected their efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After two minutes, we saw only one made free throw by Motiejunas, and only then did some kind of fight start, which after six minutes resulted in the host&#8217;s lead 8:7. After the TV timeout, someone finally woke up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-media-max-width=\"560\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">ENERGY \ud83d\ude24\ud83d\ude24\ud83d\ude24<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PartizanBC?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@PartizanBC<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/1voxgVoocD\">pic.twitter.com\/1voxgVoocD<\/a><\/p>&mdash; EuroLeague (@EuroLeague) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/EuroLeague\/status\/1999574928840897023?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 12, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n\n\n\n<p>Jared Butler entered the match with a basket from the free throw line, then hit a three-pointer, and after that, tied his sixth point. After Graham&#8217;s three-pointer, the guests had the biggest lead 16:8. However, this did not stop the rival from maintaining the connection with patient defense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Washington took matters into his own hands, tied four points, and then Tyrik scored under a foul. The first quarter ended 18:15 for Zvezda. Butler started the second period, just as he finished the first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Already after two minutes, he had ten points total, which is related to Partizan&#8217;s early fulfilled bonus, but it was not utilized that much until the big break. Zvezda also had a plus seven (26:19), and Bonga&#8217;s three-pointer announced a slightly slower period in this quarter, after a timeout for Sa\u0161a Obradovi\u0107.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Graham missed three-pointers for Zvezda, which gave the Black and Whites room to threaten. Partizan scored points in the paint, Fernando crystallized as a scorer, but before the break, Motiejunas brought a plus five from the free throw line and a three-pointer off the backboard, or plus four (39:35) after one free throw by Bruno, who was fouled with 0.4 seconds left on the clock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-media-max-width=\"560\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">.<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/J_Hooper11?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@J_Hooper11<\/a> drives to the hoop \ud83e\udd29<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/kkcz?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#kkcz<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/WeAreTheTeam?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#WeAreTheTeam<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/EveryGameMatters?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#EveryGameMatters<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/sQLrjOYbXA\">pic.twitter.com\/sQLrjOYbXA<\/a><\/p>&mdash; KK Crvena zvezda Meridianbet (@kkcrvenazvezda) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/kkcrvenazvezda\/status\/1999572114005725589?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 12, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n\n\n\n<p>After an even start to the second half, first with Nwora&#8217;s points for plus six, but then with a response in the form of two two-pointers for Brown, Jordan Nwora decided to settle the question of the winner with an incredible streak of shots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He tied a total of ten points for the team, including a basket before the mini-run of the team from Humska Street; first, he scored from mid-range, then two quick three-pointers, and Zvezda took the lead 49:39.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not even the timeout helped Mirko Ocokolji\u0107&#8217;s team at that moment, so after an alley-oop, the rival&#8217;s streak continued, with three-pointers by Butler and Nwora again for 55:41. The Red and Whites took a maximum lead of 60:44 after an unsportsmanlike foul by Washington and free throws by Butler and Izundu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The quarter ended with five points from Partizan in the last minute, as Washington quickly tied baskets. This quarter was marked by big misses by the host, as well as turnovers, but also good defense by the opponent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite the fact that everyone thought Nwora&#8217;s streak might be decisive, Partizan players thought differently during the final ten minutes. Zvezda&#8217;s basketball players maintained a double-digit difference until seven minutes before the end of the match, but then we entered a dramatic finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides Washington, Jones and Bonga woke up at that moment, Tyrik reduced the deficit to five with a pair of baskets under a foul, and then Bonga started finding points, and he scored a particularly important basket after McIntyre&#8217;s three-pointer for 72:67.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shake Milton and Washington brought the first lead for the Black and Whites since 8:7 in the first period with two minutes left, and then a real seesaw of results followed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One free throw by Butler and a dunk by Jones brought the home fans to their feet, but Butler hit a three-pointer with 68 seconds left in the game. Those were Zvezda&#8217;s last points, as Washington scored from mid-range and from the free throw line for plus three at 79:76, and Butler missed the shot for overtime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><mark style=\"background-color:#FFFFFF;color:#d21414\" class=\"has-inline-color\">MORE TOPICS:<\/mark><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/great-victory-for-the-opposition-investigative-boreholes-and-mining-banned-by-the-new-spatial-plan-of-nis\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">GREAT VICTORY FOR THE OPPOSITION: Investigative boreholes and mining banned by the new Spatial Plan of Ni\u0161!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/novi-pazar-seeks-support-more-than-200-dunp-students-lost-their-status-around-30-professors-lost-their-jobs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">NOVI PAZAR SEEKS SUPPORT: More than 200 DUNP students lost their status, around 30 professors lost their jobs!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/serbia-facing-an-energy-crisis-the-situation-with-nis-is-getting-tougher-alternative-solutions-are-being-sought-for-gas-supply\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">SERBIA FACING AN ENERGY CRISIS: The situation with NIS is getting tougher, alternative solutions are being sought for gas supply!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/first-they-go-to-the-police-and-the-train-station-students-from-novi-sad-organizedly-go-to-the-protest-in-backa-palanka\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">FIRST THEY GO TO THE POLICE AND THE TRAIN STATION: Students from Novi Sad organizedly go to the protest in Ba\u010dka Palanka!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/serbia-broke-the-record-vesna-aleksic-is-a-pilot-at-air-serbia-and-wrote-herself-in-golden-letters-in-the-history-of-aviation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">SERBIA BROKE THE RECORD: Vesna Aleksi\u0107 is a pilot at Air Serbia and wrote herself in golden letters in the history of aviation!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Source:<\/strong>\u00a0Telegraf.rs, <strong>Photo: <\/strong>Dusan Milenkovic\/ATAImages<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Partizan basketball players defeated Crvena Zvezda in the 15th round of the Euroleague with a score of 79:76.
