POST-GAME COMMENTS

Game recap: In the Sunday night derby game, Crvena zvezda mts have prevailed over Cedevita Olimpija at home in Aleksandar Nikolić Hall in Belgrade.

Crvena zvezda mts have therefore bounced back following the defeat in the Round 3 on the road in Laktaši against Igokea and are now just below the top of the standings, as they hold 3 wins and 1 defeat in their pockets. On the other side, this is the second consecutive defeat for Cedevita Olimpija, that will continue their season in the middle of the AdmiralBet ABA League standings with 2 wins and just as many defeats on their record after 4 rounds.

Key moments: The two squads have been close all until the final quarter of the game. In the final seconds of the third quarter, Cedevita Olimpija have still been in front (53:55), but Nikola Ivanović scored a three-pointer to put his team ahead by a point after 30 minutes (56:55). The margin has remained a point until the 33rd minute (61:60), but then Crvena zvezda mts went on a 10:1 run, that put them up in double digits with 5 minutes to go on the game clock. The battle for a pair of points was over.

Man of the match: Big man Ognjen Kuzmić has been the key to Crvena zvezda mts’ win, as he led his team towards the triumph with 10 points, 11 rebounds, 1 steal, 1 block and a game-high valuation of 20. He is our man of the match.

Can’t trick the stats: Crvena zvezda mts have outrebounded Cedevita Olimpija 45:33. With such dominance on the glass, it was clear that they will win this big game.
