Cedevita Olimpija crushes Slask 114-81, eyes EuroCup quarterfinals spot

Cedevita Olimpija sent a resounding message across European basketball with a commanding 114-81 victory over Slask on Polish soil. The result speaks volumes about Zvezdan Mitrovic’s team and their impressive EuroCup campaign, as they continue to establish themselves as a force many rivals should fear.

The Slovenian representatives wasted no time asserting their dominance, exploding for 65 points in the opening half. By halftime, Mitrovic’s squad had built an insurmountable 34-point cushion, effectively putting the contest to bed before the break.

A statement performance on the road

While Slask managed to show signs of life in the second half, their efforts proved far too little, too late against Cedevita Olimpija‘s assured and decisive display. The visitors maintained control throughout, showcasing the depth and quality that has made them one of this season’s most successful EuroCup stories.

Umoja Gibson led the charge for the winners with 20 points and nine assists, orchestrating the offensive clinic with precision. Rok Radovic provided excellent support with 17 points, as multiple players contributed to the comprehensive team victory. For the hosts, Jakub Niziol stood out with 13 points in what was otherwise a difficult evening for Polish basketball.

The victory improves Cedevita Olimpija‘s record to 12-6, positioning them perfectly for a potential direct route to the quarterfinals. Their fate now rests on Wednesday’s crucial matchup between Bahcesehir and Neptunas. Should Marko Barac’s Bahcesehir side fall to the Lithuanian team, Ljubljana will secure second place and earn the coveted direct quarterfinals spot – a tremendous achievement for the Slovenian club.

A night to remember in Wroclaw!
