Cedevita Olimpija have extended their winning streak in 7Days EuroCup as they beat Turk Telekom in Ljubljana to advance to the quarter-finals stage of the 2022 7Days EuroCup Playoffs. In another impressive home-court display, the Dragons scored 60 points in the 1st half in which they gained a 22-point lead – 60:38. In the rest of the match, Cedevita Olimpija did not really had much problems keeping their big lead and they successfully passed the 1st test in the 2022 7Days EuroCup Playoffs.

In the quarter-finals stage, Cedevita Olimpija will face the winner of the match between Partizan NIS and Frutti Extra Bursaspor.
