In the previous season, Luka Kureš has demonstrated that he can be added to the list of the best Slovenian players.

After an excellent last season I cannot wait to play in the ABA Leage, that we have worked hard for. I would like to invite all of the fans to support us in big numbers, so that we can create an unforgettable experience in the Tivoli Hall.”
