ABA League, formerly known as the Adriatic League, is a regional professional basketball league that operates in the former Yugoslavia region. The league is composed of teams from Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Montenegro, Serbia and Slovenia. It is the second-best regional league in Europe, behind the EuroLeague, and it is organized by the Adriatic Basketball Association. ABA League was founded in 2001 and since then it has grown to become one of the most competitive leagues in Europe. The league features some of the best teams from the former Yugoslavia region, including KK Crvena Zvezda, KK Partizan, KK Cibona, KK Zadar, KK Olimpija and KK Budućnost. The league also features teams from other countries, such as KK MZT Skopje, KK Igokea, KK Zagreb, KK Split and KK Žalgiris. The league is divided into two divisions, the ABA League and the ABA 2 League. The ABA League is the top division, while the ABA 2 League is the lower division.
Ahead of a crucial EuroLeague derby, Partizan Mozzart Bet Belgrade surprisingly falls to Mega MIS Belgrade in the ABA League. Despite a comeback effort, a miraculous ending led by Uros Trifunovic's unlucky tip resulted in a loss. Disappointed head coach Zeljko Obradovic faced questions about potential new signings following the team's struggling start to the season.
The new head coach of Crvena Zvezda Meridianbet, Giannis Sfairopoulos, won't have Nemanja Nedovic and Branko Lazic available as he returns to the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague. Nedovic sustained a hamstring injury during the first double-game week of the 2023-24 EuroLeague season. After missing Round 4 of the AdmiralBet ABA League Regular Season, he will also be absent for Round 5 of the EuroLeague Regular Season, including the crucial Eternal derby against Partizan Mozzart Bet on Thursday. Lazic, the team captain, suffered a rib injury in the match against FMP Soccerbet on Monday, limiting him to just 17 minutes of play in FMP Arena before leaving the game early.
