By JUSTIN KENNETH CARANDANG,GMA News

Jack Animam registered a double-double performance of 29 points and 12 rebounds for her team Radnicki Kragujevac, but that was nowhere near enough in this game as her team suffered a 38-point rout from ZKK Crvena zvezda, 104-66, in the First Women's Basketball League of Serbia on early Sunday morning (Manila time).

Radnicki were close to defending champs Crvena at the end of the first period, trailing 25-21. However, a 34-point romp from Crvena in the second period against Radnicki's 17 closed the first half at 59-38.

Crvena detonated a 28-point explosion at the third period, limiting Radnicki to just 16 to close at 87-54, before eventually taking the win despite a lower output of 17 points in the closing chapter.

This is Animam's second 20-point output after registering 20 in their game against Proleter last week.
