Crvena zvezda mts are the first finalists of the 2018/19 Serbian Championship. The red & whites defeated Mega Bemax on the road in Game 2 and closed this semi-final series with 2-0 in wins.

The match itself was quite thrilling and the winner was decided on just 2 seconds before the end. Crvena zvezda mts were up by 92:90, but Mega Bemax guard Adam Mokoka had 2 free-throws and a nice chance to tie the score. He made the first one - 92:91, but he missed the second shot and then made an unsportsmanlike foul on KC Rivers.

Rivers made both free throws, as well as Filip Čović a moment later and Crvena zvezda won this match by 96:91.

The man of the match was KC Rivers, who made a stunning display this evening in Belgrade. He scored 29 points, including 6 three-pointers.
