Story of the game: Igokea m:tel will host Cedevita Olimpija this Saturday evening in Round 7 of the 2022/23 AdmiralBet ABA League regular season.

This is one of the derby games this weekend as we are here talking about two teams that played in the last season’s Playoffs and which have very high ambitious for this season as well.

Igokea m:tel currently have the overall score of 4-2, while before the this two-week break they scored quite a bigt win over Budućnost VOLI. Still, since then, the Laktaši troops have stayed without an important player as DeShawn Stephens left the club, so we are about to see how will the team look like now when they don’t have their 4th best scorer of the season on the court.

On the other side, Cedevita Olimpija are at the overall score of 3-2, while their previous game in AdmiralBet ABA League did not end that well for the team as they were defeated at home by FMP Meridian. Now, the Dragons will try to return on the winning path and extend their winning streak against Igokea m:tel as they have won the previous 4 games against this opponent in the regional league.

Match-up in focus: Kendrick Ray (Igokea m:tel) vs. Yogi Ferrell (Cedevita Olimpija).

Ray is currently the top scorer of Igokea m:tel in the ongoing season with the average score of 17.3 points per game, while Ferrell is the top scorer of Cedevita Olimpija as he is averaging 17.8 points per game.

Their direct duel may actually decide the winner in this match.

Head-to-head score in the regional league: In total 2:6; In Laktaši 1:3.
