      Kazan UNICS leveled the score in the semifinal series of the VTB United League, snatching victory from Zenit in the sixth match with a score of 78:73. Now the matches will conclude in Kazan. Notably, both teams played without key players — UNICS was without Dishon Pierre for the rest of the playoffs, while Zenit lost Johnny Juzang to injury, who is expected to be out for 8-10 days.

      The game on May 25 was marked by bursts of play from both sides; however, the Kazan team often maintained an 8-10 point lead. Nevertheless, Zenit became the leader in the fourth quarter and nearly caught up with their opponents. Everything was decided by a three-point shot from Marcus Bingham and two free throws from the home team.

      For the home team, Andre Roberson and Xavier Moon each scored 15 points. Moon achieved a double-double with 11 assists as well. Roberson recorded seven rebounds. Zenit's Andrei Vorontsevich also stood out, scoring 12 points and making four rebounds.

      The next game will take place in Kazan on May 28. It will be the final match in this series, as the teams are playing to four victories. The winner will face CSKA in the finals.
