ABA League Round 18, Sunday, 28.1.2018:
Where? Topolica Sports Hall, Bar
When? 13:00
Story of the game: What a game is coming up in Bar! Mornar will be hosting their local rivals from Podgorica in Sunday’s matinée and the game has lots on stake this time! Not only pride, but also position at the end of the regular season is highly important for both sides at the moment.
While the hosts are currently fourth placed and have to do all they can to maintain this position and qualify for the Playoffs, Budućnost VOLI already have their Playoffs spot guaranteed, but they wish to secure themselves the first place and home court advantage for the Playoffs at the end of the regular season.
Both teams are currently on fire, as both of them are on a 5 games long winning streak and still haven’t lost an ABA League game in 2018. Who will remain on the winning track? Join us on Sunday at 13:00 and find out!
Match up in focus: Derek Needham was characterized as sailor's captain this season by the home fans as he is the team’s top scorer (17.71 ppg) and passer (4.82 spg). This time he will have a more than decent rival on the other end, as Nemanja Gordić might be playing his best season so far in his career! He is also leading Budućnost VOLI in scoring (15 ppg) and passing (4.65). What a matchup do we have here!
Head to head in regional league: In total 1:2; In Bar 1:0.
