Ireland U16

Ilija Radovic ran the show for Montenegro U16, finishing with 30 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists in 35 minutes as the hosts cruised past Ireland U16, 91–72, in Group A play at the Sports Hall "26th April" in Gevgelija. Radovic's efficiency was the difference. He shot 11 of 19 from the floor and a clean 6 of 6 from the free-throw line, adding 5 steals and 2 blocks while keeping his turnovers to just 2. The three-point shot (2 of 6) was the only area where his touch wavered; everywhere else, he was in control. The 19-point margin flattered neither team in particular — Montenegro's depth prevailed over a long stretch, and Radovic's all-around game, especially his ability to create off the dribble and defend multiple positions, made the difference down the stretch. It was the kind of performance that anchors a Group A win at this level.
