Story of the game: The peak of the ABA League season is definitely here and the clash of Budućnost VOLI and Crvena zvezda mts is heating up, as the series of the ABA League Finals move to Podgorica.
Budućnost VOLI are happy for the fact that they have managed to make a break in the Game 1 in Belgrade, which means that they could celebrate the trophy in Morača, in case they could just defend their home court in games 3 and 4.
However, the Belgrade’s red and white have different plans, as they will seek to make at least one re-break and defend their trophy, won in the previous season.
Both teams have demonstrated excellent performances in the first two games and it is up to us only to watch and enjoy the rest of their show and see who prevails in the end.

In this season’s Playoffs, both are averaging 14.67 points per game, while Rochestie is adding 4.67 assists per game to his stats and Gordić 3.67. Who of them will step up this time?
Head to head in regional league: In total 15:18; In Podgorica 12:3.
