Laško in semis, Tajfun and Olimpija to play Game 3

Zlatorog Laško have become the second semifinalists of the Slovenian National Championship after they downed LTH Castings on the road. The clash between Union Olimpija and Tajfun will be decided in Ljubljana…

We know 2 out of 4 semifinalists of the Slovenian National Championship. Those are Krka and Zlatorog Laško, while they will still have to wait to find out the names of their next rivals.

Zlatorog Laško scored a road win against LTH Castings and closed the quarterfinal series with 2-0 in wins. Jamar Abrams was just unstoppable this Sunday evening as he put up 24 points for the winning side and pushed the Laško crew directly into the semis.

Who will they play against? Well, that question will be answered after Union Olimpija and Tajfun play Game 3! Tajfun managed to tie the series by winning Game 2 at home court, so everything will be decided in Ljubljana.

Recall that Krka have already secured a place in the semis and they are waiting to see will they face Helios or Rogaška.
