The attention of the basketball fans in our region for the flagship regional basketball competition keeps increasing, as this season we have witnessed another increase of the average attendance of the ABA League games.

No less than 384,820 fans have visited the 143 games of the regional competition this season, which means that the average attendance for the 2018/19 ABA League season, which was 2691, has risen for 5.6% in comparison to the season before, when it was 2547.

This is also the second highest average attendance in the entire history of the regional competition, after the 2012/13 season (2723).

The 2018/19 season was historic in terms of the Playoffs games attendances, as the total attendance of the ABA League Playoffs games crossed 60,000 for the first time in history and was 65,118. The average of the eleven Playoffs games, played on Budućnost VOLI, Cedevita, Crvena zvezda mts and Partizan NIS courts was an impressive number of 5,920.
