Igman secured a comfortable 91-77 win against Mrkonjić Grad in the Championship of Bosnia on Friday evening. The hosts controlled proceedings throughout, building a lead that never really looked in jeopardy. The result leaves the visitors rooted to 12th place in the table.
Mrkonjić Grad sit 12th after 24 games, with just eight wins from their campaign. They have lost 16 matches this season and sit well clear of the relegation zone, though their form has not suggested any serious ambition for the top half.
The hosts come into this match on the back of a solid display last week. Igman defeated Drina 88-76 on October 3rd, showing consistency at home that has become a hallmark of their season. That victory helped maintain their position in the upper reaches of the table.
Mrkonjić Grad's recent results paint a mixed picture. They lost 71-64 to Basket Živiniće on October 3rd, but had earlier secured a narrow 76-70 win over Letar Trebinje in April. Those April fixtures included victories against Promo and losses to Gorazde's Radnički.
The margin of victory widens the gap between the two sides in the standings. Igman continue to demonstrate the quality that separates them from the lower half, while Mrkonjić Grad remain in familiar territory — competitive but not threatening anyone's safety.
