Story of the Game: The Sunday evening in Ljubljana brings another exciting AdmiralBet ABA League showdown as Cedevita Olimpija host Vienna in Stožice Arena.

The Dragons are off to a strong start this season, sitting at a 3-1 record and showing steady progress in all competitions they are participating. Head coach Zvezdan Mitrović can be pleased with the way his team has been performing lately - especially after the big EuroCup win over U-BT Cluj-Napoca, just a few days ago.

Meanwhile, Vienna can be satisfied with the way they opened their first-ever ABA League campaign. The Austrian newcomers have already shown that they belong at this level, collecting two wins in their opening five games and delivering competitive performances in every match they played. Although a few results could have easily gone their way with a bit more luck, Vienna’s fighting spirit and organized play have caught the attention of many. Now, they will attempt to make another statement by challenging one of the league’s most established clubs on the road.

Match-up in Focus: For Cedevita Olimpija, the man in the spotlight is Aleksej Nikolić. He has been in excellent offensive rhythm since the beginning of the season, providing leadership, tempo control and scoring punch. In the Dragons’ last AdmiralBet ABA League appearance in Sarajevo, Nikolić dropped 28 points to lead his team past Bosna BH Telecom.

On the other side, Gregor Glas returns to Ljubljana in a special matchup against his former team. The talented guard has become the centerpiece of Vienna’s offense, averaging 19.8 points per game, which currently ranks him as the second-best scorer in the league.

Head-to-Head Score in ABA: 0:0.
