Cedevita are still waiting for their first ever ABA League title. Last season they were defeated by Budućnost VOLI in the semifinals and therefore suffered another painful elimination. But, they are not giving up.
This summer, the club management decided to try something totally new, something that you do not see that often in these lands. Cedevita signed no less than 7 foreign players and on top of that they hired Spanish coach Sito Alonso to lead the team in the next season.
The Orange troops now speak different languages, but they all have the same goal – to win the league.
There are 4 Americans in the roster – Justin Cobbs, Josh Magette, James Bell and Elgin Cook, then there are two Brazilians – Vitor Benite and Augusto Lima, while the last foreigner in the team is Spanish player Pablo Aguilar. Cedevita kept 4 domestic players from the last season – Andrija Stipanović, Filip Krušlin, Toni Katić and Ivan Ramljak, while they have completed the roster with two former Cibona players Domagoj Bošnjak and Andrija Ćorić.
Together, they will try to write a new page in club’s history and to finally take the precious trophy to Dom sportova, Zagreb.
