Two games are going to be played today in EUROHOLD Balkan League. First in group B OKK Beograd (Belgrade, SER) is hosting BC Rilski Sportist (Samokov, BUL) while in group A the current champion BC Galil Gilboa (Gan Ner, ISR) welcomes KK Mornar (Bar, MNE).
OKK has no chance of advancing to top 6 while Rilski Sportist is already qualified. This means that both teams are going to be free from any pressure and this could lead to an entertaining match. Last week OKK had its first win of the competiton and the team will looking to make it two in a row while Rilski Sportist is going to have in the mind also the next game in the championship against Balkan.
Milos Pavlovic is averaging 12.6 points and 6.6 rebounds for the hosts in the competition so far. Vladimir Popovic is playing well with 11.8 points while Aleksej Nesovic has 10.6 per game. The top scorer of EUROHOLD Balkan League Terry Smith is averaging 20.7 points for Rilski Sportist in six games so far. Branko Mirkovic is having 13.4 points and 5.0 assists while Braxton Dupree is useful with his 13.0 points and 7.7 rebounds.
The situation in the game between Galil Gilboa and Mornar is the same like in the other match. Galil is already qualified for top 6 while Mornar has no chance of reaching that stage. The visitors may want to try and take revenge for the big loss they suffered when those two teams met last almost two months ago. In Montenegro Galil Gilboa dominated the game and took a 31-point win. Of course that will be very difficult to happen and the hosts will be looking to take the win to restore their confidence after two straight losses to KK Kumanovo 2009 and BC Levski in the competiton.
Jamar Smith is proving to be a nice addition for Galil as he is averaging 17.3 points so far. He is followed by Dagan Yivtzori with 12.3 points and Amit Simhon who is having 10.3 per game. For the team from Bar top scorer for now is Lazar Radosavljevic with 11.7 per game. Miroslav Damjanovic has 10.7 while Andrej Pajovic is with 9.3 points.
