Tomorrow (17), Budućnost Volija basketball players have the opportunity to confirm first place in the regular season of the AdmiralBet ABA League - the "blues" welcome FMP, and a victory guarantees them home court advantage until the end of the playoffs.
The situation could be clearer tonight, since Partizan, which has one win less and a weaker head-to-head record than Buducnost, is visiting Cedevita-Olimpija, but the "blues" are not thinking about other teams and results.
It is clear that the Montenegrin champion is the favorite in tomorrow's match, that he has a great chance to crown a good part of the season with a triumph, and coach Andrej Žakelj once again says that approach is the most important thing.
"We all know what this game means to us. I want the approach to be as if it were a final, for the concentration and intensity to be at their maximum. If we play like that, I'm sure we can reach the goal. It won't be easy - FMP plays fast and aggressive basketball. They are a team to be respected, but our approach will be key," explained Žakelj.
Andrija Slavković recently returned to the court, after being injured at the end of February in the EuroBasket qualifiers.
"I feel great. I've been in full rhythm for 15 days now, so I'll be ready for the game. Everything depends on us. I have no doubt that we will win if we come out with the energy that has adorned us in the last few games. The key will be energy, focus and desire, which will not be in question," said the winger.
Admission to the match will be free.
"I invite the audience to support us in as many numbers as possible. With this victory, we are officially first in the standings," concluded Slavković.
