xSy Complete Dramatic Comeback, Take Overtime Thriller 68–62

What began as a comfortable lead for Telekom Srbija at halftime flipped into a test of nerve and execution as xSy staged a late fightback and seized control in overtime to win 68–62. A 14-point advantage at the break dissolved across the second half and into extra time, where xSy outscored their opponents 15–9 to close out the contest.

The statistical headline belongs to Milanov Aleksandar, named player of the game after a dominant effort on the glass — 16 rebounds to go with 10 points and a game-high efficiency rating (19). His interior presence kept xSy competitive on the boards throughout, and his second-half scoring helped fuel the comeback.

Offensively, Nikolić Nino was the catalyst for xSy, finishing with 19 points, multiple three-pointers and a steady hand at the free-throw line down the stretch. Petrović Pavle provided late-game calm, converting a series of free throws in critical moments and finishing with reliable percentages at the line (7 of 8) that proved decisive in the closing stages.

Telekom's attack featured several bright spots. Kikić Vojin led the scorers for his side with 17 points and six rebounds while also drawing fouls at key moments. Petrović Petar finished with a double-double (12 points, 11 rebounds) and was active on both ends, and Kostić Dimitrije contributed 10 points and 10 rebounds earlier in the night to help build the first-half cushion.

The momentum swing came quickly after halftime: xSy outscored their opponents 19–9 in the third quarter and added a 13–9 edge in the fourth, erasing the gap and forcing overtime. In the extra period, xSy executed better in the paint and at the free-throw line, while Telekom found scoring opportunities harder to come by.

Trajković Stefan wrote his own late chapter by keeping Telekom alive — a timely three-pointer and follow-up bucket forced tense moments and pushed the game into extra time — but xSy’s balanced attack and the rebounding grind from Milanov Aleksandar ultimately settled the outcome.

This game will be remembered for the resilience and momentum shifts: an impressive first-half showing overturned by a composed comeback, with xSy seizing the narrative in overtime to notch a hard-fought win.
