Presenting the 2021/22 ABA League teams – Crvena zvezda mts

After winning the previous two titles in a super dramatic way, by defeating their opponents in decisive Game 5 each time, Crvena zvezda mts are now heading into the new season with one and only goal – to complete their 2^nd ever three-peat. Recall that Crvena zvezda mts have already won three consecutive titles between 2015 and 2017, while now they have a chance to it again.

And they have a man in their ranks who knows very well how to pull off three-peats. Zvezda’s current head coach Dejan Radonjić was the one who led the red-and-whites toward all 3 titles in their 1st three-peat and he will now try to make history with the Belgrade giant once again.

Radonjić returned to the club in the middle of the last season only to help Zvezda win the 2020/21 regional title. Still, only 6 players from that team have remained with the red-and-whites, including team captain Branko Lazić, then Ognjen Dobrić, Dejan Davidovac, Ognjen Kuzmić, Aleksa Uskoković and Marko Simonović. All the other members of the 2021/22 team roster are the newcomers.

Crvena zvezda mts have made some big signings this summer. The red-and-whites have managed to bring back Nikola Kalinić, then their former captain Luka Mitrović, while they inked contract with one of the best guards in the league Nikola Ivanović. American point guard Nate Wolters has also returned to the club, as well as another former player of the red-and-whites Stefan Lazarević, while the team also got stronger for two players with significant EuroLeague experience - Aaron White and Austin Hollins.

What is very important about this team is that coach Radonjić knows the players very well as he has worked with many of them in the past. And, that might be a huge advantage for the reigning champions in their attempt to complete the 2nd ABA League three-peat.
