2017/18 ABA League Regular Season, Round 14, Saturday, 30.12.2017:
Where? Dražen Petrović Sports Hall, Zagreb
When? 21:00
Story of the game: Just couple of weeks ago Cibona were trying to escape the danger zone at the ABA League standings. They have also decided to change the head coach, due to the poor team results in the 2017/18 season, but now, at the end of 2017, the Wolves are among the teams who are sharing the 4th spot on the table. The spot that leads into the ABA League Playoffs!
And, they will try to end this year with a win against none other than the 2nd placed team on the standings – Budućnost VOLI.
The visitors are also approaching this match in high spirits, as they have just qualified for the TOP 16 stage of EuroCup. The 2017/18 season has so far been quite good for the Blue team, so they will give their best to end it victoriously.
Match-up in focus: This time our pick will be the duel between Marko Tomas (Cibona) and Kyle Gibson (Budućnost VOLI). They are both great shooting guards and they can both score plenty of points if you let them pick up the right rhythm.
Head to head in regional league: In total 13:16; In Zagreb 8:6.
