They were the biggest surprise of the previous ABA League campaign when, despite being the youngest team in the competition, Mega Leks reached the Playoffs Finals! Can they repeat that success?

They were the biggest surprise of the previous ABA League campaign when, despite being the youngest team in the competition, Mega Leks reached the Playoffs Finals! Can they repeat that success?

Today's tram: Mega Leks

2015/16 record: 17-9

Current preseason score: 6-4

Mega Leks. Yes, they are THE TEAM people were talking about during the whole summer. It is the club who had the most players selected on NBA Draft over the past few years and it is the club which made quite a basketball miracle in the 2015/16 ABA League season. Although many people predicted them to finish the season in the middle of the table, Mega Leks advanced to the Playoffs and even reached the ABA League Finals!

It was a historic achievement for this club, but be sure it was not the last time we heard of Mega Leks. The squad did suffer some major changes over the summer, as they stayed without the entire lineup (Ivanović, Luwawu-Cabarrot, Aranitović, Nikolić, Janković), however some very talented players filled the gaps in the roster.

One of the top European basketball prospects Kostja Mushidi signed with Mega Leks this summer, former player of ABA League champions Crvena zvezda mts Marko Tejić also joined the squad together with Radosav Spasojević, Vlatko Čančar, Stefan Glogovac and Miloš Milisavljević.

Perhaps the best news for Mega Leks fans is that Dejan Milojević remained team head coach. He has already helped so many youngsters to develop into great players, so we should all expect some new basketball stars stepping up on the main stage in the 2016/17 season.
