ABA League 25th round, Sunday, 5.3.2017:
Where? FMP Sports Hall, Belgrade
When? 21:00
Story of the game: FMP have definitely escaped the danger zone, so the Panthers will be able to fully enjoy the last two rounds of the 2016/17 ABA League regular season. And, those two remaining games will be quite special as they will face two teams who will play in the Playoffs - Crvena zvezda mts and Cedevita.
The first challenge is the clash against the leader of the table and the reigning champion - Crvena zvezda mts. FMP will try to become the 2nd team in this season to beat the red & white crew, while also the Panthers will try to stay undefeated at home court in 2017. So far they played 5 home games in this year and scored 5 wins!
On the other side, Crvena zvezda mts return to their ABA League duties after completing another successful task in Euroleague. The boys coached by Dejan Radonjić have already secured the top spot on the standings, so they do not feel any pressure in front of the two remaining rounds of the regular season. Still, they will definitely go for the two more wins...
Match-up in focus: It will be interesting to watch the duel between Isaiah Austin (FMP) and Ognjen Kuzmić (Crvena zvezda mts). It will be a true clash of the basketball titans down in the paint.
Head to head in regional league: In total 8:9; In Železnik 4:3.
