Forward Nikola Kalinic (202-F-91) put on an extraordinary performance in the last round for Vojvodina, receiving a Eurobasket.com Player of the Week award for round 13 (Second Stage). The 21-year old player was the main contributor (16 points, seven rebounds and three assists) to his team's victory, helping them to edge out Mega Vizura (#3, 9-4) 88-85. The game was between two of the league's top four teams. Vojvodina maintains the 4th position in Serbian A League. They would have been even better if they hadn't lost a few games earlier in Second Stage. Vojvodina will need more victories to improve their 8-5 record. Kalinic has many years of experience at Vojvodina, through which he has constantly improved. Nikola Kalinic averages this season 10.8ppg.
The second best player in last round's games was 25-year old Uros Nikolic (207-F/C-87) of Radnicki KG. Nikolic had a very good evening with 20 points and 5 rebounds. Of course he lead Radnicki KG to another comfortable win outscoring slightly lower-ranked Sloboda Uzice (#7, 3-10) 96-58. Radnicki KG's 5th position in the standings has not changed. His team lost some distance to top teams. But 7-6 record is not bad and everything may still change. Nikolic is one of the most experienced players at Radnicki KG and has a reputation of one of team's most reliable players.
Third on the list of top players last round was former international center Boban Marjanovic (222-C-88, agency: Beo Basket) of Mega Vizura (#3). Marjanovic scored 15 points and grabbed ten rebounds. Despite Marjanovic's great performance Mega Vizura lost 85-88 to #4 ranked Vojvodina. But his team cannot count on just a single player as he also needs help of the other teammates especially in such crucial game. The last thing Mega Vizura needs is to lose another game like this one. They lose more and more distance to the top teams. Their record is 9 victories and 4 lost games. Marjanovic has a great season in Serbia. After 38 games, he made it on the list of the league's leaders in points with 16.9ppg (6th best) and rebounds with 11.8rpg (#1 in league). He also has 1.6bpg and FGP: 68.9%.
