Borac Cacak

After more than three decades, Borac Cacak has returned to the regional basketball map. They have been a member of the ABA League for two seasons, with the ambition to achieve better and better results every year. The head coach is Marko Marinovic, one of the club legends from his playing time, and progress is quite visible. This season, Borac finished in 11th place in the ABA league, while in the Serbian Cup they were eliminated by FMP in the quarterfinals with a score of 88:77. They still have to play in Serbian League until the end, where it is necessary for them to win this game in order to stay alive in this series. Before the start of the Serbian League playoffs, Borac decided to part ways with Hunter Hale and Duda Sanadze, and some younger players like Djordje Vladimir Curcic and Djordje Marijan Curcic got a chance to play. In the first game against Mega, Borac defended very poorly three points shots in the first half, which was the main reason why they lost the game. They have a much bigger advantage than Mega in paint, so Marko Pecarski and Ivan Marinković will surely exploit that in game number two.

Mega

After the regular season in the ABA league ended, Mega made an even more drastic move than Borac Cacak. Foreign basketball players Malcolm Cazalon and Scoochie Smith have left the team, while Nikola Jovic and Karlo Matkovic are not playing in the Serbian League. Both of them have declared for the upcoming NBA Draft and they are fully committed to preparing for that event. Mega gave chance to all the young players they have, and youngsters returned it in the right way. In all five playoff games in Serbian League so far, Mega has won all five games and left a very good impression. Borisa Simanic and Aleksa Uskokovic have the biggest role, while Samson Ruzhentsev and Luka Cerovina also take big minutes. There is also Andrija Grbovic, perhaps the greatest talent that Mega has at the moment and everyone expects great from him to have a brilliant career. In the first game against Borac, Mega looked impressive in the first half and they will have to do it again in Cacak if they want to win. In any case, even if they lose, they will have a chance to reach a spot in the Serbian League semifinals at home in potential third game.

Second game of Serbian Superliga playoff series is shelduled on Tuesday 📆
