Story of the game: FMP Meridian will host Mega MIS in the last game of the opening round of the 2022/23 season.
Both sides have high ambitions ahead of the new campaign. FMP Meridian want to repeat the success from the past season when they qualified for the AdmiralBet ABA League Playoffs after many years, while Mega MIS will also try to join the Top 8 race this season as they haven’t played in the Playoffs since 2016.
There are many new faces in both teams and there are many top-class youngsters on each side. FMP Meridian and Mega MIS have once again decided to give a chance to many top prospects and it will be interesting to see them in action on the big stage.
It is important to mention that FMP Meridian have already started their season as they played in the FIBA Champions League Qualifiers, while on the other side this will be the first official match for Mega MIS in the 2022/23 season.
At this moment, the head-to-head score between these two teams in the regional league is all tied as each team has 6 wins on its record.
Match-up in focus: Trent Frazier (FMP Meridian) vs. Malcolm Cazalon (Mega MIS)
Trent Frazier was one of the best players of FMP Meridian during the recent FIBA Champions League Qualifiers and he should be the new leader of the Panthers. On the other side, Malcolm Cazalon had some impressive displays during the preseason games in which he showed that this might be his year.
Head-to-head score in the regional league: In total 6:6; At FMP Meridian’s home court 4:2.
