ABA League 11th round, Saturday, 21.11.2015:
Where? Stožice Arena, Ljubljana
TV schedule: 17:00
Story of the game: One of the derbies of the round is coming up in Stožice Arena in Ljubljana, as Union Olimpija will host Mega Leks in a clash of two teams that have their goals of finishing the season in the upper part of the standings and, of course, have several young top prospects on their rosters. Blaž Mesiček, Miha Lapornik, Timothe Luwawu Cabarrot and Nikola Ivanović are just a few of them.
However, as far as the performance of both teams is concerned, it seems that Mega Leks are clear favourites this time. With Ljubljana side being in a 4-game losing streak and since Mega Leks have placed themselves in the 2 place in the standings together with Cedevita and Crvena zvezda Telekom, after losing only one of their last 7 games, all bets are currently placed on the Sremska Mitrovica squad.
However, the season is already full of surprises. With the support of home crowd, everything might be possible for the Dragons.
Match-up in focus: Point guards have been the dominant characters in both teams so far this season. As Zack Wright is arguably the best individual of the green and white, Nikola Ivanović has experienced his rebirth after moving to Mega from Budućnost VOLI. Who will come out on top this time?
