Dubai, 19 May 2025:  Dubai Basketball is set for one of its most defining moments yet, as the team prepares to face off against one of Slovenia's toughest sides in the third and final game of the ABA League Quarter-Finals. The deciding game will take place on Tuesday, 20 May at 7:30 PM at Coca-Cola Arena.

With a Semi-Final spot on the line, this is an all-or-nothing battle for Dubai's team. A win secures their place in the next stage of the tournament against league giants, Partizan. Whereas a loss would mean the end of their first season campaign.

In their inaugural ABA League season, Dubai Basketball has made an undeniable impact. The team not only finished third in the regular season but also exceeded expectations every step of the way, earning their place in the playoffs and marking a new era for the sport in the region. Their rise has captured attention across the globe, positioning Dubai as a formidable presence in international basketball.

Fuelling this ascent is a star-studded roster, featuring elite global talent, including ex-NBA sharpshooter Davis Bertans and celebrated EuroLeague talent such as Dubai's captain Klemen Prepelić. These players bring championship experience and dominant performances, making a bold statement about the city's growing basketball ambitions.

Playing a best-of-three series, Dubai Basketball's first Quarter-Final game against Cedevita was won by the thinnest of margins at Coca-Cola Arena before the team conceded their second game at Slovenia last Friday. For the final leg of the series, Cedevita comes to Coca-Cola Arena for a high-stakes game.

Now, it all comes down to this final Quarter-Final game. Fans are called on to show up in full force to help transform Coca-Cola Arena into an impenetrable fortress.

Game 3 of the ABA League Quarter-Finals tips off at 7:30 PM on Tuesday, 20 May at Coca-Cola Arena. Tickets are available now via the Coca-Cola Arena website.
