In the opening game of the Saturday’s AdmiralBet ABA League schedule, Cedevita Olimpija have prevailed over SC Derby on the road in Morača Sports Hall in Podgorica.
It is the 8th win of the season for Cedevita Olimpija in 10 games played so far and their chances to take one of the top positions in the standings ahead of the Playoffs are looking great right now.
Cedevita Olimpija have made their ambitions clear right from the flying start of the game, as they took a 10-point advantage (1:11), already by the end of the third minute. As it turned out later in the game, SC Derby did not manage to threaten their lead again until the end and so these turned out to be the crucial moments for the game’s development.
Yogi Ferrell was the key for the Cedevita Olimpija’s easy win, as he led the Dragons to the new high-flying performance and win with 16 points, 7 assists, 3 rebounds, and a valuation of 28.
The next game is coming up for the Dragons on Wednesday, when they will face Bourg on the road in France. The game is scheduled for 19.30.
