Here is the last round review presented by Job Market.
This derby game ended with only one-point defeat on the road of 6th ranked Ethniki (2-5) to seventh ranked Atlantas P. (3-6) 76-75 on Thursday evening. Atlantas P. moved-up to fifth place, which they share with Ol.Aglantzias. Ethniki at the other side dropped to the seventh position with five games lost.

Another exciting game was a derby match between two teams from Nicosia: PAEEK (#1) and ENAD (#3). ENAD was defeated at home 65-78 and even the advantage of their own court did not help. It ended at the same time the two-game winning streak of ENAD. Undefeated PAEEK (9-0) have an impressive series of nine victories in a row. They maintain first place with a perfect record of 9 victories in a row. ENAD at the other side keeps the third position with three games lost. PAEEK will play against league’s second-placed Digenis AM in the next round and it will be for sure the game of the week. ENAD will play against Ol.Aglantzias and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
Very important is a road loss of second ranked Digenis AM (7-2) against fourth ranked Phoenix MJ (5-4) on Sunday night. Visiting Digenis AM was defeated by Phoenix MJ in a tough game in Limassol 67-73. It ended at the same time the four-game winning streak of Digenis AM.
