Crvena zvezda Telekom star center Maik Zirbes has been selected to become the most valuable player of the ABA League for the month of February and he did it by leading his red and white team to an undefeated streak last month with his brilliant performances.
The reigning regional competition champions Crvena zvezda Telekom have been one of the two undefeated teams in the month of February in the ABA League and they managed to beat all MZT Skopje Aerodrom, Igokea, Sutjeska and Cibona especially thanks to their starting center Maik Zirbes, who is currently playing in the shape of his lifetime.
In four games in February, the 208 cm tall big guy has averaged 18.75 points, 7.5 rebounds, 0.75 assists and just as many steals, which brings us to his average valuation of 25.75 during the previous month in the regional competition.
Twice, in the 22nd and 24th round he has earned himself the MVP of the round honour and Zirbes has become the fourth player with the MVP of the month title this season. Miro Bilan of Cedevita has done it twice, in November and December, while Suad šehović (September) and Tadija Dragićević (January) of Budućnost VOLI have done it once each.
