The Red Star basketball players will play against Maccabi tonight in the 33rd round of the Euroleague in the “Aleksandar Nikolić” hall.
Dejan Radonjić’s team in the “Aleksandar Nikolić” hall is saying goodbye to this season in that competition, apparently – played below expectations.
The star is waiting for another match in Berlin after Maccabi and thus puts an end to the Euroleague in the season, and then he will focus on the ABA league, which is a priority.
– The Maccabi team is waiting for us, which has been in a good rhythm lately. They recorded several valuable victories, such as the one over Zalgiris in Kaunas and against Barcelona in Tel Aviv. This is a team that has exceptional individual quality, they are filled in all positions. If it weren’t for some unfortunate defeats, they would surely be in the fight for a higher ranking. We have to play this game much stronger and much better in defense than we played this one against Armani – said Radonjić.
Captain Branko Lazić says that a new challenge awaits them.
– Maccabi has been playing great for the last few weeks. They have two tied victories in both competitions, and the duel with Barcelona speaks best about their form. They play fast, they have great individuals and attackers, which means that we will have to play a good defense and much stronger than against Armani – said Lazić.
The star is in the 17th place in the Euroleague with a result of 9-23, while Maccabi has a score of 13-17.
