The basketball players of Cedevita Olimpija suffered a defeat on Saturday at the Morača arena in Podgorica, losing 88:71 to Budućnost VOLI in the derby of the second round of the regular season of the AdmiralBet ABA League.

The senior team of Cedevita Olimpija is returning from a short road trip, which included away games against Hapoel in Belgrade and Budućnost in Podgorica, with a split record. On Wednesday, the Dragons defeated the Israeli team in Belgrade after an excellent second-half performance, but on Saturday they lost in the second-round derby of the regional league to last season’s finalists, Budućnost. The scoreboard in Morača showed 88:71 in favor of the home team. For the Ljubljana side, this was their first loss in official games of the 2025/26 season after a streak of four consecutive victories.

On Sunday, the Ljubljana basketball players will return to the Slovenian capital, where two home games await them in the coming week — on Tuesday at 6:30 p.m. they will face Aris from Thessaloniki at Stožice Arena, and on Sunday at 5:00 p.m. they will play against Zadar.


GAME REPORT:

Budućnost VOLI have started the game in a better fashion, leading by 12 points after the opening quarter. Cedevita Olimpija bounced back in the second quarter and when DJ Stewart made two free throws with a bit less than 2 minutes remaining in the first half, the score was tied at 39:39. Budućnost VOLI, however, finished the first half with a 3-point advantage (44:41). The key moments finally arrived in the opening two minutes of the second half, when the hosts went on a 9:2 run, to create themselves a double-digit advantage again (53:43). The visiting side never recovered from this blow until the end of the game.

DJ Stewart was the top scorer of Cedevita Olimpija with 13 points on his record. Aleksej Nikolić added 11.
