2024/25 AdmiralBet ABA League Round 9, Saturday, 16 November 2024:
CEDEVITA OLIMPIJA – MEGA MIS
Where? Tivoli Sports Hall, Ljubljana
When? 19:00
Story of the game: On Saturday night, Cedevita Olimpija will be hosting Mega MIS at home in their Tivoli Sports Hall in Ljubljana.
It’s a clash of two squads, that haven’t had their best possible period lately, as both of them have lost 4 out of their 5 games, but also their last four games played in a row in the AdmiralBet ABA League.
After 8 rounds played, Cedevita Olmpija have found themselves in the danger zone near the bottom of the standings with a 2:6 record, while on the other hand, Mega MIS are now on a 4:4 record, following their dream-like 4:0 start, but a losing streak that followed afterwards.
The question therefore is which of the two squads will return to the winning track after 4 unsuccessful attempts to do so and will get back on track towards achieving their goals set for this season.
Let’s mention that previously, Cedevita Olimpija have been far more successful than Mega MIS in mutual encounters, when playing at home in the AdmiralBet ABA League, winning 5 out of 6 games against Mega MIS in Ljubljana, but as well when it comes to total encounters, where Cedevita Olimpija prevailed 8 times and Mega MIS 4 times.
How will this clash end? Tune in on Saturday night and find out!
Match-up in focus: Mega MIS have a huge potential at the point guard position this season, as Mihailo Petrović has been leading their squad in passing with 4.8 assists dished out per game, while coming second in terms of scoring with 14.1 points per game. On the other side, there will be DeVante’ Jones trying to limit his impact, while leading his team to the win. So far this season, DeVante’ has been averaging 7.6 points alongside 4.5 assists per game, as the top passer of Cedevita Olimpija. Who will prevail in this head to head clash?
