Partizan easily defeated FMP, now has one more win than Buducnost at the top

If Andrej Žakelj's team defeats Borac, Spartak, Cibona and SC Derbi in the next matches, they will have a chance to return to first place against Partizan on April 11th at the M:tel "Morača" hall, but this time alone because they would be better than the Belgrade club in the head-to-head.

It was expected after Buducnost's unexpected defeat to Mega - Partizan basketball players, with a victory over FMP (90:65), became independent at the top of the AdmiralBet ABA League.

The Montenegrin champion now has a win less than the "black and whites" in second place - Budućnost is at 19-3, and Partizan is at 20-2.

Immediately after the match in Podgorica, Željko Obradović's men will face another derby - against Red Star.

When it comes to tonight's match against the rivals from Železnik, all Partizan players scored, with Dwayne Washington leading the way with 15 points. He was followed by Aleksej Pokushevsky with 12 points and seven rebounds, and Vanja Marinković with 12 points.

For FMP, Filip Barna scored 18 points.

In the next round, Partizan expects another tough rival - Dubai away, while Buducnost welcomes Borac.
