Serbia kept up the pressure on neighbours Montenegro at the top of Group A in the EuroBasket 2013 Qualification Round as they eased to an 88-63 win over Estonia. They took control of the game midway through the first quarter and never looked back as they improved to their record in the group to 3-1. Estonia had held a 13-12 edge on Janar Talts' three-pointer but Serbia responded with a 14-2 run to the end of the quarter that put them 26-15 up on Nemanja Bjelica's jump-shot. Back-to-back three-pointers from Danilo Andjusic and Marko Keselj early in the second quarter made it 38-18 as Serbia asserted total control. When Dejan Musli made a lay-up midway through the third period the lead was 60-35 and the lead hit 29, 70-41, on a three-point play from Musli to end the quarter. Milos Teodosic and Nenad Krstic had 12 points each for Serbia with Andjusic adding 11. Reinar Hallik led Estonia with 11 points and Siim-Sander Vene added 10. |
