MEGA SUPERBET DEFEATED IN PODGORICA

Mega Superbet suffered a loss in Round 12 of the ABA League, falling on the road to Budućnost VOLI in Podgorica, 100–82 (31–19, 22–19, 22–20, 25–24). Vule Avdalović’s team found itself in a double-digit deficit after the opening 10 minutes, responded much better in the second quarter and generally played more competitively in the remainder of the game, but failed to close the gap. The hosts maintained their advantage throughout and secured the win, improving their record to 9–2, while Mega dropped to 3–8 after the defeat at Morača.

Mega Superbet was led by Bogoljub Marković with 14 points and nine rebounds, and Savo Drezgić, who also scored 14 points while adding six rebounds and four assists. Asim Đulović contributed 11 points, while Kyrell Luke and Abdramane Sibi added 10 points apiece.

For Budućnost, Axel Bouteille scored 20 points, Rasheed Sulaimon added 19, Nikola Tanasković had 13, Fletcher Magee finished with 12, and Đorđije Jovanović chipped in 11.

Although the home team opened the game strongly and built an early lead, Mega stayed close until the final minutes of the first quarter, when Budućnost pulled away to a double-digit advantage. Avdalović’s players tried in every way to fight back after the break, competing solidly and showing good stretches, but were unable to significantly reduce the deficit. The more experienced hosts led 53–38 at halftime.

Mega started the third quarter well through Luke and Sibi, but Budućnost soon reasserted control and extended the margin again. Avdalović’s squad continued to battle and never gave up, but the Podgorica team preserved its lead in front of its home fans. Mega had some positive moments in the final period as well, but lacked the strength to seriously threaten the hosts’ advantage and ultimately suffered the defeat.

Mega Superbet will play its next ABA League game on January 5, 2026, when it hosts Vienna in Round 13 at the Ranko Žeravica Sports Hall.
