Zadar vs Buducnost Odds
Zadar Team News
Zadar’s basketball players failed to be equal opponents to Buducnost in the first match. They suffered a heavy defeat of 69-100 due to extremely poor performance in the second half. Danijel Jusup’s chosen ones played very well in the first 20 minutes, trailing by only six points. However, they ran out of steam in the third and fourth quarters, experiencing one of the biggest failures of this season.
The main reason for the poor result in the first game was the very poor performance of Luka Bozic. The ABA League MVP was invisible throughout the match. He scored only two points, with his only basket coming in the fourth quarter. Apart from scoring efficiency, he was not active in rebounds, although he recorded six assists.
Marko Ramljak was the most efficient individual for Zadar with 14 points. Dario Dreznjak and Lovro Mazalin each scored 13 points, while Karlo Zganec added 11.
Buducnost Team News
On the other hand, Andrej Zakelj, the coach of Buducnost, can be satisfied with the way his players played the first game of this series. The Slovenian coach can be especially proud of their performance in the second half when they scored 58 points in 20 minutes. With such a style of play, they would defeat much stronger teams than Zadar.
Budućnost players performed extremely well on the defensive end. Their aggressiveness was at an optimal level, so they scored many easy baskets on the other end of the court due to quality defense. Also, coach Zakelj utilized the deep rotation excellently, maintaining the same intensity throughout the entire 40 minutes with constant substitutions.
Yogi Ferrell was the most efficient player in the entire match. He scored 17 points, hitting five three-pointers. Nikola Tanaskovic added 15 points, while Kenan Kamenjas achieved a double-double with 10 points and 10 rebounds.
Zadar vs Buducnost Head-to-Head
Budućnost basketball players defeated Zadar in all three head-to-head meetings this season. Each victory came with a double-digit difference, 100-69, 67-57, and 103-73.
Zadar vs Buducnost Prediction
Although Zadar’s players have achieved much better results at home than away this season, we believe they will not be able to avoid defeat on Friday. As already mentioned in this text, Buducnost’s roster is much deeper than Zadar’s roster. Moreover, the individual quality is also on the side of the visitors. Ultimately, Budućnost is a much better organized team on defense. All in all, we believe that the club from Podgorica will celebrate with at least a five-point difference and secure passage to the semifinals of the ABA League playoffs.
