Buducnost VOLI Podgorica head coach Aleksandar Dzikic:
"Our opponents are one of the few clubs in Europe fully understanding the importance of continuity and stability. Their core players are playing together for four or five years; their coach is there more than 10 years; and their results in that period deserve the greatest respect. They have an experienced team, they added a point guard with very good results in his career, and their plans for the rest of the season are clear. On the other hand, we can play in front of our fans again, and we hope they will come to support us. We want their help because we will play against a team who can use various formations, a team with some very good shooters, with a few all-round players, with different zone and match-up zone options."
Buducnost VOLI Podgorica player Kendrick Perry:
"We are in a good rhythm the last couple of weeks. We got some new pieces, so so our opponents, so we will see how it will go. We got our fans back in the gym, that is always a good thing. At the end of the day, we have to be aggressive, to come out with the right mindset, and to be ready to execute for 40 minutes."

Cosea JL Bourg-en-Bresse-Umana Reyer Venice | Round 12 Highlights | 2024-25 BKT EuroCup
Umana Reyer Venice head coach Walter De Raffaele:
"We've got much respect for the Buducnost organization and for Coach Dzikic. We will face one of the most talented teams of the whole competition, which also added a great player like Kendrick Perry. Buducnost has a complete roster and so it will be another tough game in this competition. It’s going to be important to have great physical impact and limit their ability to crash the boards and run the floor. Overall, the key will be to contain their one-on-one talent."
Umana Reyer Venice player Michele Vitali:
"It’s going to be a difficult and tough game, as all are in the EuroCup. They came off a very good win in Bologna and they are talented. We need to be prepared to play a great away game, limiting their strengths, starting from defense, taking energy to offense, moving the ball to create open shots."
