Dubai Basketball win 14th straight ABA League game

Dubai Basketball maintained full control of their ABA League campaign with a home win over FMP, taking the Round 16 game at the Coca-Cola Arena by a score of 98:82.

The result pushed Dubai to 14–0 in the standings and kept them at the top end of the table.

Dubai remains the only team in the entire league that have remained unbeaten, both home and away. This is the UAE based teams' second season competing in the ABA League following a semi-final finish in their debut season.

Dubai Basketball Head Coach Jurica Golemac spoke about his teams’ performance saying, “This was a serious performance and a well-deserved win. Defensively, especially in the second half, we showed the level we want to play at, and the team spirit continues to grow. The season is long, we’ve had challenges, but the character of the group is clear - we stay positive, keep building, and focus on every game.”

After being out with an injury for most of the season, one of Dubai Basketball’s biggest signings, Džanan Musa’s returned with a statement. The Bosnian shooting guard, Musa delivered his most effective performance, scoring 21 points in just over 21 minutes of play. Aleksa Avramović contributed across multiple areas with 13 points, 6 assists, and three rebounds, while also controlling tempo during key phases of the game.

Frontcourt production was another factor in Dubai’s consistency. Mfiondu Kabengele added 16 points, and Kenan Kamenjaš finished with 13 points and seven rebounds. Dubai spread scoring responsibility and avoided prolonged scoring droughts throughout the contest.

FMP was led by Filip Barna with 21 points and six rebounds, while additional scoring came from Scott, Stefanović, Stanojević, and Gašić. Despite balanced individual efforts, the visitors were unable to match Dubai’s efficiency.

Combined with control of key moments in the second and fourth quarters, that efficiency ensured another composed and convincing home victory for Dubai Basketball.

The team currently stands undefeated in the ABA League and head to their next game at Belgrade Arena against Red Star for EuroLeague Round 25.
