ABA League 15th round, Saturday, 19.12.2015:
Where? Pionir Hall, Belgrade
When? 19:00
Story of the game: Big show is expected in Pionir Hall, as the youngest team of the league, but indeed a talented one, Mega Leks, are coming to town to face Partizan NIS, their second Belgrade opponent in two rounds. After they have fallen after overtime to Crvena zvezda Telekom last round, this time they will do their best to return to winning tract after two straight defeats, in order to keep holding their playoffs position firmly.
On the other side, Partizan NIS have won 3 out of their four last games and are climbing rapidly in the standings and trying to maintain their (small, but still alive) hope of reaching the playoffs of this season"s regional competition. With an eventual victory over Sremska Mitrovica side, they would cut the gap between themselves and the fourth team of the league to only 2 victories.
Can they do it? We have to wait and see.
Match-up in focus: There is little doubt that Timothe Luwawu Cabarrot, the Mega Leks youngster, is one of the players that have marked this season with fantastic performances in the ABA League. On the other side, there will be Slovenian international Edo Murić this time, who returned from rehabilitation following an injury last round and already proved that he is ready to rumble. It will be a clash to watch.
