Cedevita made it to the finals of Croatian Cup

Instead of a big city derby in the finals of the Croatian Cup, there will be a clash between the last-year winners and the co-hosts of the tournament.

Cedevita will have a chance to win the Croatian Cup for the 4th year in a row as they advanced to the competition finals after beating Zadar by 92:75. The game was pretty close in the first half, but then Cedevita scored 31 points in the 3rd quarter and gained the crucial lead. Miro Bilan was simply unstoppable this evening, as he scored 28 points and had 8 rebounds.

In Saturday's finals Cedevita will face the co-hosts of the tournament Jolly JBŠ who defeated no other than Cibona in the semifinals! Jolly JBŠ squad won the 3rd quarter by 28:17, escaped to a double digit margin and stayed in front until the end of the game.
