He led LTH Castings to a 65-59 victory over the closely-ranked Grosuplje in the Slovenian 2.SKL (second division), earning the title of MVP for his exceptional performance on the court. In his debut game for LTH Castings this season, Nagode demonstrated his skills by scoring 14 points, grabbing 9 rebounds, and providing 1 assist in just 23 minutes of play. His impressive contribution was instrumental in securing the win for his team, elevating them to fifth place in the league standings.
