NBA Projections, Stats & Analysis

Crvena is good at rebounds, Olimpija has shot well

Crvena Zvezda has been a strong rebounding team and despite a loss in the last game, they extracted a 44:39 advantage, 13 on the offensive end. The trouble was that while the team allowed Olimpija to shoot 42 free-throws, making 31 of them while they themselves shot horridly themselves from the line, only pumping in 6 of their 15 free-throws. The last loss was shocking for Crvena after they had nailed 14 triples compared to just 5 by Olimpija, so undoubtedly the free-throw disparity was huge.

In the last game, Edo Muric for Olimpija nailed 21 points while also grabbing 7 rebounds. Apart from him, options like Zoran Dragic, Yogi Ferrell, and Jaka Blazic have been viable. On the other hand, for Crvena, Nate Wolters has been a dependable guard option whereas Luka Mitrovic has been doing a decent job both as a scorer and rebounder. The team will need to shoot better from the free-throw line.
