ABA League Semi-finals, Round 3, Sunday, 1.4.2018:
Where? Morača, Podgorica
When? 19:00
Story of the game: The battles of Budućnost VOLI and Cedevita are becoming epic, as the two squads will meet for the eighth time this season and unfortunately, this will be the last time that we will witness the clash of these two squads one against another for this season. One of the two will win themselves a spot in the ABA League Finals and we just have to wait and see which of the two will it be.
Many people remember the legendary Game 5 of the ABA League Semi-finals from the 2015, when Budućnost VOLI were also hosts, but they failed to reach the fight for the trophy, as Cedevita celebrated in their court back then.
Can this repeat this time? We cannot know that, but the thing that is certain is that details will decide in the showdown of two fantastic teams. Stay tuned.
Match-up in focus: Demetris Nichols was the one that shined in Game 2 and that has taken his team to the decisive game 3, while in the first game of the series, Nemanja Gordić was the one to give the 1:0 advantage in the series to Budućnost VOLI. Can one of them repeat their stellar performance and take his team to Finals?
Head to head in regional league: In total 11:14; In Podgorica 9:4.
