ABA League 5th round, Monday, 17.10.2016
Where? ŠD Leona Štuklja, Novo mesto
When? 18:00
Story of the game: The last game of ABA League Round Five will be a big one, since the champions are coming to Novo mesto to face Krka with a desire to score their fifth straight win at the beginning of the ABA League season and stand up after unlucky defeat at the opening of the Euroleague season against Darussafaka.
However, their task will be all but easy, since all the big names of the league, including Zvezda, have never had an easy job obtaining a pair of points on the road in Leon Štukelj Hall and we believe that this time it will be no different.
In their fourth attempt, Krka will do everything in their power in order to grab the second win of the season and that way to stay in touch with the middle of the standings after five rounds, even having a game less in their record.
Krka will appear this time without injured Darko Jukic, while Crvena zvezda mts have no injury problems whatsoever at the moment.
Match-up in focus: The duel of excellent point guards will be crazy to watch this time. Young, extremely talented and above all ambitious Matic Rebec will try to prove everyone that he is a proper match to perhaps the hottest point guard of the league at the moment – Stefan Jović. What will prevail this time – Rebec’s long distance three-point shots or fantastic assists by Jović? Wait and find out…
Head to head in regional league: In total 5:16; In Novo mesto 3:6.
