Dzanan Musa hit a game-winning 3-pointer to give Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) a 76-73 win over Bulgaria to qualify for the final stage of the World Cup qualifiers on Monday. Musa’s long-distant shot went in when the two teams were tied 73-73 with 13 seconds to go, and the win sent Bosnia into the next stage against Lithuania and the Czech Republic. Bosnia hosted Bulgaria in Skenderija, a famous gymnasium in Sarajevo and took an early 19-18 lead before they pulled away to 40-27 before the break, the biggest margin of the game. Bulgaria came back to close the gap to five points in the third quarter and trailed 66-64 midway into the fourth.
