Zagreb’s Cibona basketball club have become the second Croatian team to win the Adriatic Basketball League after they beat fellow Zagreb club Cedevita 72-59 in the final in Belgrade on Sunday…
Cibona’s star of the final was MVP Dario Šarić, who scored 23 points, made 17 rebounds and 7 assists.
“This is definitely the happiest moment of my career. When I was small my father told me about the Yugoslav league which was full of amazing players, that is why this is a special moment, to win this league,” a happy Šarić said after yesterday’s final.
Both Cibona and Cedevita, Croatia’s only two clubs in the league, knocked out Serbian clubs in the semi-finals, meaning they both now qualify to compete in the Euroleague next season.
