Can Igokea bounce back on home court?

ABA League Semi-finals Round 2, Friday, 7 May 2021:

IGOKEA – CRVENA ZVEZDA MTS

Where? Laktaši Sports Hall, Laktaši

When? 18:30

Story of the game: The Game 2 of he Semi-final series of the ABA League season is just around the corner and everything comes down to only one question right now – will Igokea manage to tie the series to 1:1, or will Crvena zvezda mts advance to the Finals by sweeping the Semi-final series?

In the Game 1, Crvena zvezda mts got away with a convincing home win in the end with the score of 76:61, but it wasn’t that easy for the red and white as the final score would suggest. The hosts led by only a point ahead of the last quarter, in which they have finally pulled away and won with the score that they could have desired ahead of the big game.

This way, Zvezda have beaten Igokea twice in a short period of time, as they have prevailed over Igosi in the Round 25 of the Regular season as well, that time by only 3 points in the end. So even though one might get the impression that the red and white have outclassed the blues recently, it really wasn’t so.
This time, Igokea will face Zvezda at home and everything might be different in a different venue. Can Igokea strike back?

Tune in on Friday and find out!

Match-up in focus: The Game 1 was perhaps decided at he point guard position, where Corey Walden was the best player of Crvena zvezda mts, as he added 13 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists and a valuation of 20 to his stats, leading his team to the win. On the other side, Anthony Clemmons, which used to be the key player of Igokea often this season, failed to make the similar contribution this time around. He has finished the game with 6 points, 3 assists, 2 rebounds, 1 steal, 4 turnovers and a valuation of only 1. Can this time be different? Can Clemmons prove his value once again and help his team tie the series?

Head to head in the regional league: In total 6:15; In Laktaši 3:7.
