The battle in the 1/4 finals begins tonight

Two spots are up for grabs for the Final 4 of Delasport Balkan League and the quest for one of them begins tonight in Prishtina. Starting from 20:30 local time in the Kosovo capital, KB Sigal Prishtina will host BC Balkan in the first game of their 1/4 finals tie. The match will be broadcast on Kujtesa TV in Kosovo and also online on BTVsport.bg and Delasport Balkan League's YouTube channel. 

Sigal Prishtina comes in to the game with six home wins in a row and just one defeat which was in the first match of the season. The Kosovo team made a lot of changes to the roster during the season but few players are still here from the start and their constant performance will be key - Jan Pallokaj, Wendell Mitchel, Lejson Zeqiri and Jetmir Zeqiri. When you add to them the recently arrive Henry Dugat, Dustin Thomas and Da'Quan Cook and we can see who the main players of coach Ante Nazor are. The home side will be looking for a stong outing in front of its fans and will count a lot on their support about that. 

Balkan will know that there is second game in Botevgrad next week so it will be looking for a good result tonight. The Greens are of course missing Stanimir Marinov, especially late in the games. They also made some moves during the season with Ahmaad Rorie, Christian Jones and DeVaughn Washington joining later and as a matter of fact, they are the team's most dangerous weapons. When you add to them the fellow American Derrick Marks and we can see the firepower Balkan has. In order to qualify for the Final 4 however, the Greens will also need the support of Dimitar Dimitrov, Kris Minkov and Nikolay Grozev who have to step up and perform.
