Semi-finals
USK 80 Tartu – Barons 88
Dexia Mons 70 – Proteas EKA 55
The BK Barons started better (23-15) and this allowed them to obtain a certain feeling of dominance in a final with very few points, and with the tension of opting for a title at all times. Dexia gradually closed the gap, and the final possessions were reached, where the Barons entered with a lead of around three/five points, which earned them a very tight, but fair, win.
