Story of the game: That game against Metalac Farmakom in the third round of ABA League now seems so long ago for Sutjeska. Back then, team from Nikšić scored their second win in the season, they had 2-1 overall score and everything looked so bright for the newcomers. However, after that game, Sutjeska suffered 5 defeats in a row and they are now sharing the last spot on the standings together with Tajfun and Partizan NIS.
Interesting enough, until the last round Cibona was also there, right at the bottom of the table. But, Zagreb powerhouse scored a win last weekend and made one step forward... Still, everyone in Cibona are well aware that they need much more than a single win to join the race for the top four spots on the standings.
Therefore, this game might be crucial for both sides. The win will solve many problems for one team.
Match-up in focus: Nemanja Vranješ was one of the bright figures in this tough period that is behind Sutjeska. Still, we will see if he is able to confront James Brian Florence, a new point guard of Cibona, who is definitely in great form. Both players are very able to score many points...
