April 28, 2021 - MVP of April: Rashawn Thomas, Partizan NIS
We
have the seventh monthly MVP of the 2020-21 season and for the first
time it is Rashawn Thomas of Partizan NIS. Rashawn Thomas has proven,
throughout the month of April, his dominance at the ABA League courts
wherever he has appeared and besides the fact that he finished the
month amongst the statistically most efficient players, he deserved
himself the award with his contribution to the team's success –
Partizan NIS have won all of their games during that month and have
finished the Regular Season on a 6 games long winning streak. The
excellent power forward in the ranks of the Belgrade squad averaged
14.3 points, 6 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 2 steals and a valuation of 20
during the games of Partizan NIS. Read more here.
April 26, 2021 - Round 26
The final round of the 2020-21
ABA League regular season is just in front of us, while a big match
will be played in Jazine Sports Hall where Zadar will host Crvena
zvezda mts. This game will decide which team will finish the regular
season at the 1st place. If Crvena zvezda mts take the win, then they
will finish the regular season at the top spot. If Zadar prevail in
this match, then Crvena zvezda mts will drop to the 2nd spot, while
Budućnost VOLI will take over the 1st position. Read more here.

April 10, 2021 - Round 25
In the opening game of the ABA League Round 25,
Cibona will be hosting Zadar at home in their Drazen Petrovic Arena in
Zagreb. It is an extremely important game for both sides, as both of
them are still fighting to avoid the danger zone near the bottom of the
ABA League standings and the final 13th place, which leads to the ABA
League Qualifiers. Currently, the situation at the bottom of the
standings is tense. Cibona are in the group of three teams that are
sharing the 11th place with 7 wins on their record. On the other side,
Zadar are a level above, with 8 wins on their record. Read more here.
In the opening game of the Sunday’s ABA League
schedule, Buducnost VOLI will be hosting Mega Soccerbet in Moraca
Sports Hall in Podgorica. It’s the game that is one of the vital ones
for Buducnost VOLI, that are still in the middle of the Playoffs race
with the 17:3 score on their record. Currently, only one team have lost
so few games as the Moraca squad, but three more teams remain serious
Playoffs contenders at the moment. Winning would be extremely important
for the squad of Morača. Read more here.

April 1, 2021 - MVP of March: Nikola Ivanovic, Buducnost VOLI
We
have the sixth monthly MVP of the 2020-21 season and for the first time
it is Nikola Ivanovic of Buducnost VOLI. Nikola Ivanovic has proven,
throughout the month of March, his dominance at the ABA League courts
wherever he has appeared and besides the fact that he finished the
month amongst the statistically most efficient players, he deserved
himself the award with his contribution to the team's success –
Buducnost VOLI have won all of their games during that month and are
currently on a 7 games long winning streak. The excellent combo guard
in the ranks of the Morača squad averaged 13 points, 3 rebounds, 5
assists, 2.3 and a valuation of 19.5 during the games of Buducnost
VOLI. Dejan Milojevic arrived to Podgorica as the new head tactician.
Ivanovic is convinced that it had an impact on their quality
performances, since a couple of important Buducnost VOLI squad members
used to cooperate with him before: “It did not take long for us to
adapt to Miloje’s game style. Some of us have been working with him
before and the others had no problem understanding his ideas either. I
believe that he had a positive impact on all of us.” Read more here.
March 27, 2021 - Round 23
On Saturday night, Crvena zvezda mts will be hosting
FMP at home in their Aleksandar Nikolic Sports Hall. It will for sure
be an interesting game of two Belgrade squads in the Saturday’s
encounter, as currently both teams have plenty to fight for in the ABA
League. Crvena zvezda mts have lost in the previous round in the derby
game against Buducnost VOLI and need to win this time in order not only
to get back on to the winning track, but also to strengthen their
favourable position, that they are still holding in the Playoffs race.

In the ABA League Round 21 opener, Zadar will be
hosting FMP at home in Kresimir Cosic Sports Hall in Zadar. It is an
extremely important clash for both sides in their battle to avoid the
danger zone near the bottom of the ABA League standings, but only one
of them can accomplish their goal this time! Both squads hold 6 wins in
their hands right now after 20 rounds, just like Krka and Split. They

March 6, 2021 - Round 20
Buducnost VOLI and Zadar have been scoring some
great results lately, while this Saturday evening they will face each
other in Podgorica in ABA League match of the round. Both sides have
triumphed in 4 out of the last 5 games in the regional league, so the
atmosphere in each team is at a very high level. It is interesting to
say couple of words about their head-to-head score in ABA League. Zadar
have scored 3 wins in their first 4 games in Podgorica in the regional
league, but after that they suffered 12 consecutive defeats against
Buducnost VOLI on the road. To be fully precise, Zadar haven't scored a
win in Podgorica since 2006! Read more here.

time it is Chinanu Onuaku of Zadar, for the first time this season.
Chinanu Onuaku has proven, throughout the month of February, his
dominance at the ABA League courts wherever he has appeared and besides
the fact that he finished the month amongst the statistically most
efficient players, he deserved himself the award with his contribution
to the team's success – Zadar have won both of their games during that
month and are currently on a 4 games long winning streak. The excellent
big man in the ranks of the Višnjik squad averaged 17 points, 8.5
rebounds, 3.5 assists and a valuation of 29 during the games of Zadar,
which puts him on the first place in the rankings in valuation for the
month of February. Read more here.
February 26, 2021 - Round 19
In the opening game of the ABA League Round 19,
Mornar will be hosting Krka at home in Topolica Sports Hal, Bar. It
will be a game of two squads that need to start winning again following
recent defeats in order to stay in a favourable position in the battle
to achieve their goals set for this season. Mornar will be looking to
recover from their 18th round defeat on the road in Belgrade against
Mega Soccerbet, their 4th of the season and they need to win to
maintain a good position in the Playoffs race and keep track with the
rest of the Playoffs contenders. Read more here.

February 3, 2021 - MVP OF JANUARY: Jaka Blazic, Cedevita Olimpija
We
have the fourth monthly MVP of the 2020-21 season and for the second
time it is Jaka Blazic of Cedevita Olimpija, after he had previously
claimed the honour in November. Jaka Blazic has proven, throughout the
month of January, his dominance at the ABA League courts wherever he
has appeared and besides the fact that he finished the month amongst
the statistically most efficient players, he deserved himself the award
with his contribution to the team's success – Cedevita Olimpija have
won all five of their games during that month, which keeps them in the
Playoffs race, as they currently hold the score of 12/15. The excellent
swingman in the ranks of the Ljubljana squad averaged 21.6 points, 3.6
assists, 3.4 rebounds, and a valuation of 20.8 during the games of
Cedevita Olimpija, which puts him on the fourth place in the rankings
in valuation for the month of January, but on first amongst those
players, whose teams have won all of their games that month. Read more here.
January 30, 2021 - Round 17
On Saturday night Cedevita Olimpija will be hosting
Partizan NIS at home in Stožice Arena in Ljubljana. Can they get their
revenge for the 4th round defeat in Belgrade? It will be a big game of
two old rivals, that are always fighting for the top spots in the
regional competition and one that might be a crucial one for the
remainder of the season this time. Read more here.
On Saturday night, Partizan NIS will be hosting FMP
at home in Ranko Zeravica Sports Hall in Belgrade. The question that
appears ahead of the city clash is whether Partizan NIS can return to
the winning track by stopping the red-hot FMP. FMP are currently on a 3
games long winning streak and have no desire of stopping in order to
strengthen their position in the middle of the ABA League standings,
where they would find themselves with a 6:9 record in case of a
victory. Read more here.
In the opening game of the ABA League Round 15 two
times that are on an upside will be meeting in FMP Arena in Belgrade.
FMP will be hosting Split and it will be a clash of two teams with
similar stories right now. Both of them have won their last ABA League
games in clashes where not many have expected their victories – FMP
have prevailed over Cedevita Olimpija, while Split have beaten
Buducnost VOLI – and their position in the standings are similar as
well. While FMP are currently holding four victories in their hands,
Split are holding five. Read more here.

start of the second part of the 2020/21 ABA League season. Mega
Soccerbet (9-4 season score) will host Igokea (9-3) on Sunday at 12:00
and this game may decide plenty of things when it comes to the race for
the top 4 spots. Read more here.
Saturday, January 9
Borac : Partizan NIS 75-71
Split : Buducnost VOLI 78-77
A big game is coming to Belgrade on Saturday night,
as Mega Soccerbet will be hosting Cedevita Olimpija in the clash of two
squads, that have been in great shape this season, both of them losing
only 3 games so far, which means that both of the two squads are still
in the Playoffs race. Read more here.
FMP will be hosting Mega Soccerbet at home in the
FMP Arena on Saturday night in what will be an interesting Belgrade
clash in the ABA League Round 12. Perhaps the standings suggest that
Mega Soccerbet are the clear favourites ahead of the game against FMP,
as they have won eight ABA League games so far, while FMP have only
grabbed 2 victories, but the games are always exciting when city rivals
meet and we are convinced that this time would be no different. Read

In the opening game of the ABA League Round 11,

December 10, 2020 - Round 10
The ABA League Round 10 is set to get underway and
it will be Split and Krka that will try to score the first win in the
first double-digit round of the season. Interesting enough, the two
squads, both of which have appeared in every single of their ABA League
games this season, have scored 3 wins apiece, alongside 6 defeats and
they will be battling for the fourth triumph of the season, which would
push them towards the middle of the ABA League standings, into the safe
zone, away from the bottom. Read more here.
On Saturday, all eyes of the basketball lovers from
across the region will be set on Topolica Sports Hall in Bar, where
Mornar will be hosting Partizan NIS in the derby game of the night.
It’s always electric in Topolica when these two squads meet and the
outcomes of the clashes between the blue & orange and black and
white are always uncertain. In four games of the two teams in Bar, each
of them have snatched two triumphs. Read more here.

November 28, 2020 - MVP of November: Jaka Blazic, Cedevita Olimpija
We
have the second monthly MVP of the 2020-21 season. It is Jaka Blazic of
Cedevita Olimpija. Jaka Blazic has proven, throughout the month of
November, his dominance at the ABA League courts wherever he has
appeared and besides the fact that he finished the month amongst the
statistically most efficient player, he deserved himself the award with
his contribution to the team's success – Cedevita Olimpija have won
both of their two games in November, which keeps them firmly in the
Playoffs race at the moment. The excellent swingman in the ranks of the
Ljubljana squad averaged 22.5 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists and a
valuation of 29 during the games of Cedevita, which puts him on the
second place in the rankings in valuation of the month of November,
besides only Filip Petrusev (36) of Mega Soccerbet. However, the fact
that Blazic has appeared in both games of the Dragons that month and
that Petrusev appeared only in one of three of Mega Soccerbet means
that he has contributed more to his team’s success this month and
that’s what gave Blazic the MVP title. Read more here.
On Sunday afternoon, Mega Soccerbet will be hosting
Krka in their Ranko Zeravica Sports Hall in Belgrade. It will be an
intriguing clash of two squads, that have difficult ambitions right
now, as they look towards the standings, but with one goal on their
mind – score another win. Read more here.
ABA League Round 6 will open in Cacak in Friday’s
clash of two local rivals – Borac and Mega Soccerbet. The ABA League
newcomers will try their best to stand up after three straight defeats,
that have followed the big win in their maiden ABA League appearance
against Partizan NIS. On the other side, Mega Soccerbet want to bounce
back after two consecutive defeats, which have followed three straight
wins at the opening of the season. Read more here.
November 5, 2020 - MVP OF OCTOBER: Filip Petrusev (Mega Soccerbet)
We
have the first monthly MVP of the 2020/21 season. It is Filip Petrušev
of Mega Soccerbet. Filip Petrušev has proven, throughout the month of
October, his dominance at the ABA League courts wherever he has
appeared and besides the fact that he finished the month as the
statistically most efficient player, he deserved himself the award with
his contribution to the team's success – Mega Soccerbet have won three
of their five games during this month, which keeps them in the Playoffs
race. The excellent big man in the ranks of the Belgrade squad averaged
21 points, 7.4 rebounds, 1.4 blocks and a valuation of 22.8 during the
games of Mega Soccerbet, which puts him on the first place in the
rankings in valuation of the month of October. Read more here.
October 30, 2020 - Round 5
Big night for the basketball fans in Laktaši is
coming up. Igokea will be hosting Partizan NIS and it is always
exciting when these two squads battle in this venue. So we believe that
this time would be no different. Both of the two squads have been
victorious lately in the ABA League, with Igokea winning their last
three encounters and Partizan NIS two. Read more here.

A big game is coming to the Ranko Zeravica Sports
Hall on Sunday afternoon, as Mega Soccerbet will be hosting Crvena
zvezda mts in the Sunday’s matinee. Basically, only one question
remains open ahead of the big clash and that is which of the two squads
will remain undefeated after four rounds in the ABA League, as both of
them have started the 2020-21 season perfectly and haven’t suffered a
single scratch so far. Read more here.

October 20, 2020 - ROUND 3 MVP: Nikola Ivanovic, Buducnost VOLI
We
have the MVP of the 3rd round of the season and it is Buducnost VOLI
point guard Nikola Ivanovic. Ivanovic dominated the court in Moraca
Sports Hall in the game of his team against Borac. At the match of the
3rd round between Buducnost VOLI and Borac, Nikola Ivanovic achieved 27
points, 5 assists, 2 rebounds, 2 steals and a valuation of 32 in 30
minutes spent on court. He had the second highest valuation of the
round in the ABA League, behind Jurij Macura of Koper Primorska.
However, the fact that Ivanovic did not use his quality just to rise to
the top of the statistical categories, but also helped his team to beat
Borac, unlike the stats of Macura in the game of his Koper Primorska
against Igokea is what earned him the MVP of the round honour. Ivanovic
was also the top scorer of the ABA League Round 3. The other players
that marked the Round 3 with their individual performances were the top
rebounder Dominic Gilbert of Zadar (13 rebounds), top passer Filip
Covic of FMP (9 assists), and top “ball thief” Anthony Clemmons of
Igokea (4 steals). Read more here.
October 15, 2020 - Round 3
It is never dull to watch city rivals clash one
against another and it will be no different this time, as FMP will host
Partizan NIS in their FMP Arena in Belgrade. It will be even more
packed with excitement since both teams are entering the clash wounded,
after defeats and will do everything in their powers in order to bounce
back and grab a victory. Read more here.
October 11, 2020 - ROUND 1 MVP: Marko Simonovic, Mega Soccerbet
We
have the MVP of the 1st round of the season and it is Mega Soccerbet
big man Marko Simonovic. Simonovic dominated the court in Laktasi
Sports Hall in the game of his team against Igokea. At the match of the
1st round between Igokea and Mega Soccerbet, Marko Simonovic achieved
19 points, 13 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 block and a valuation of 33 in less
than 27 minutes spent on court. He had the highest valuation of the
round in the ABA League. However, the fact that Simonovic did not use
his quality just to rise to the top of the statistical categories, but
also helped his team to beat Igokea, is what earned him the MVP of the
round honour. Simonovic was also the top rebounder of ABA League Round
1. The other players that marked the Round 1 with their individual
performances were the top scorers Rion Brown of Cedevita Olimpija,
Dominik Mavra of Zadar and Ognjen Jaramaz of Partizan NIS (21 points
scored each), top passer Filip Covic (10 assists), while no less than
five players have had the most steals this time – 3. Read more here.

The ABA League Round 2 will open with a bang, as
Partizan NIS and Buducnost VOLI will clash in Belgrade in a battle of
two sides that have only the highest ambitions set ahead of them for
the 2020-21 season. Read more here.
The opener of the 2020-21 ABA League season in
Belgrade is going to be a specific encounter of two young squads, that
will try to prove their value once again this season, after they have
both impressed and topped the expectations placed upon them last
season. Both of them were Playoffs contenders for the majority of the
season, even though not many have expected them to be ahead of the
season. Read more here.
