KK Brod-Svjetlost hosting HKK Zrinjski in search of their first win

The third round of the 2010/2011 EUROHOLD Balkan League tips off with a game tomorrow in Slavonski Brod, where local side KK Brod-Svjetlost will be looking for their first ever win in the BIBL. In Dvorana Vijus, the Croatian side are hosting another first-year team in the League - HKK Zrinjski HT Mostar.   KK Brod-Svjetlost didn′t enjoy the best possible start of the season, and lost their first two games in the Balkan League - against OKK Beograd at home (66:72) and away in Sofia against BC Levski (94:60).   With the signing of the new head coach Zoran Kalpic, things are looking better for the team from Slavonski Brod, as they made the surprise in the last round in Croatia, defeating one of the favourites - KK Split (95:82) and will surely look to extend their winning streak with their BIBL game against HKK Zrinjski.   On the other side we have HKK Zrinjski HT Mostar, who have played only 1 game in the EUROHOLD Balkan League so far. In the second round, the Bosnian side enjoyed a great home win against KK Ulcinj (82:79). In the last round in Bosnia, Zrinjski were defeated at home by Sloboda Dita (66:67) and surely will be motivated to get back on the winning way tomorrow in Slavonski Brod.   Matej Karlovic is leading KK Brod-Svjetlost in scoring, averaging 17.0 points per game. Filip Vukicevic is the team′s best rebounder with 9.5 rebounds per contest, while Ljubo Samadan and Srdan Helbich are having 6.5 rebounds each. Aljosa Sarac is the best passer so far with 3.0 assists per game.   Lazar Simonovic is Zrinjski′s scoring leader (23.0 ppg), along with Armend Kahrimanovic (21.0 ppg). Zeljko Sakic is the third player go score in double digits (19.0 ppg). Tomislav Ramljak and Mate Peraljica are having 7.0 rebounds per game, and Lazar Simonovic is the leader in assists - 6.0 per game.   The game tips off at 19.00 local time in Dvorana Vijus in Slavonski Brod.
