BC FMP won their third straight game in the EuroChallenge on Tuesday evening at VEF Riga and got a monster performance from their Serbia international Miroslav Raduljica in the process.

The EuroBasket silver-medal winning center had 19 points and 16 rebounds in an 85-81 triumph for FMP.

Nemanja Protic poured in a game-high 22 points for the visitors, including the go-ahead shot midway through the fourth quarter.

VEF Riga were going after their second victory in the competition and Ingus Bankevics drilled a three-pointer for a 72-71 lead.

Protic gave the lead back to FMP with a three-ball, though, and Mladen Jeremic followed with two baskets, the second a dunk, for a 78-72 advantage.

Bankevics later came up with a three-point play to reduce the deficit to 82-81.

Filip Covic calmly sank two free-throws and after Gregory Renfroe turned the ball over, Pedja Stamenkovic split one of two free-throws for the four-point FMP success.

Ivan Nelyubov finished with 18 points and eight rebounds for VEF Riga, who slumped to 2-1.
