2017/18 ABA League Regular Season, Round 6, Sunday, 29.10.2017:
Where? Laktaši Sports Hall, Laktaši
When? 17:00
Story of the game: The topic No. 1 in Laktaši is of course the transfer of Dorell Wright to Brose Bamberg. Igokea have therefore stayed without their best player in this season and they will quickly have to get used to the fact that excellent scorer is no longer in the roster.
How much can Igokea do without Dorell Wright on their side? We are about to see that on Sunday evening, when this team host FMP.
The visitors are in excellent rhythm. They have scored 2 wins in a row in ABA League and they are positioned in the upper part of the standings. To be fully precise FMP were holding the 2nd spot on the standings before this round, so their main goal this weekend is to stay there. And, in order to do so, they will need to triumph in Laktaši.
Match-up in focus: Igokea point guard Marko Ljubičić will face his former team, as he played for FMP in the previous season. Therefore, he will confront his ex-teammate Filip Čović who is still considered as the best player of FMP crew. It will be an interesting duel.
Head to head in regional league: In total 0:2; In Laktaši 0:1.
