It will be an encounter, where Igokea will try to extend their winning streak to three games. It would be their seventh triumph of the season that would keep them amongst contenders for a spot in the Playoffs.
On the other side Mornar, that have upset Krka in the previous round to score the third win of the season, wish to do the same again with Igokea, this time while playing on the road.
In the battle, which will be the first ever for this two sides, Igokea might play without slightly injured Brandon Fortenberry, while Mornar are coming to Laktaši without sidelined Marko Čalić on the squad.
