Game recap: In the opening game of the fourth round of the AdmiralBet ABA League season, Budućnost VOLI have outgunned Cedevita Olimpija and grabbed their third win of the season.

Key moments: Ever since Marko Jagodić-Kuridža opened the game with a 3-pointer to take his team up 3:0, Cedevita Olimpija managed to get in front just once, after a three-pointer by Marko Jeremić right at the start of the second half. However, Budućnost VOLI made a strong reply and pulled away quickly once again. While Cedevita Olimpija bounced back once more at the start of the last quarter, they did not manage to do more than take the game into an exciting finish, where eventually, Budućnost VOLI prevailed.
Man of the match: Alpha Kaba had a tremendous performance for Budućnost VOLI this time, as he finished the game with 18 points, 9 rebounds, 4 steals, and a valuation of 27. He is our man of the match!
Can’t trick the stats: Since it has been a close game it is no wonder why the two teams’ stats are similar in the end. However, perhaps 10 turnovers of Cedevita Olimpija against 7 by Budućnost VOLI were a category, where winners were decided.
