Story of the game: The two teams who are doing their best to remain in the Playoffs zone are facing each other this Monday evening in Krešimir Ćosić Sports Hall.
It’s Zadar vs. Mega MIS.
Zadar are awaiting this match in a pretty good shape as they won the previous two games in the league, while on top of that their star player Luka Božić has fully recovered from injury.
On the other side, Mega MIS suffered two consecutive defeats before this match, but it should be mentioned that they lost those two games against Budućnost VOLI and Partizan Mozzart Bet who are among the top teams on the standings.
Zadar and Mega MIS are right next to each other on the standings. Zadar are currently holding the 6th place on the table with the overall score of 10-8, while Mega MIS are right behind at the 7th place with the overall score of 9-9.
The first team outside the Playoffs zone have the overall score of 8-10, which means that every game until the end of the regular season might be crucial in the Playoffs race.
Match-up in focus: Zadar fans were definitely relieved when they saw Luka Božić back on court after missing one game due to injury, while Božić have quickly regained his old dominant shape as he led his team toward the win last week against Cibona with 22 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists.
When Mega MIS is concerned, all the eyes are now pointed to Nikola Đurišić who might be the next big thing coming from Mega’s basketball factory. Đurišić has had several excellent performances in this season, while last week he scored 17 points against Budućnost VOLI.
Head-to-head score in the regional league: In total 8:13; In Zadar 5:5.
