THE JUNIORS OF MEGA SUPERBET SET OUT IN PURSUIT OF FIFTH STRAIGHT ABA TITLE

The juniors of Mega Superbet will fight for their fifth straight title in the U19 ABA League, as the Final Four tournament takes place in Laktaši. Milan Vidosavljević’s squad will face their peers from Cibona in the semifinal, scheduled for Tuesday, April 8, at 4:00 PM. The other semifinal matchup features FMP against Igokea, with their game set to tip off three hours later.

Junior team head coach Milan Vidosavljević shared his expectations ahead of the Final Four:

– This will be our first final tournament of the season. All teams have earned their place here, and surely everyone is looking for their shot. The tournament format means that a single game decides the winner, which requires maximum focus in every match. We’re focused on our first game, and the guys are ready,

said Vidosavljević.

He will have a strong roster at his disposal, bolstered by players from the senior team as well as those who gained valuable experience this season playing for OKK Beograd in the Serbian Basketball League.

Mega Superbet roster for the U19 ABA League Final Four includes: Jack Kayil, Aleksandar Vojinović, Vuk Danilović, Urban Kroflič, Abdramane Siby, Nikola Karalić, Vukašin Mušikić, Pavle Bačko, Ognjen Nikolić, Ognjen Srzentić, Petar Ostojić, and Luka Illes.

– The lineup has changed a bit; we’ve had one training session together, and we’ll have another today in Laktaši. I believe the players coming from the senior team will bring a certain level of quality. We’ll try to play our best basketball and give it our all,

added Vidosavljević.

Mega Superbet has won a total of five U19 ABA League championships. They claimed the title in the last four seasons (2024, 2023, 2022, and 2021), as well as in 2018.
