Cedevita Olimpija Ljubljana booked its place in the Slovenian Cup final four tournament by beating the visiting Triglav Kranj 93-80 on Monday night. The game was the second leg of their home-and-away quarterfinal series, and it proved to be a formality after Cedevita beat Triglav 52-103 in the first leg.
In this game, Cedevita took control with a 16-2 third-quarter run sparked by Zoran Dragic and Rok Radovic, having opened a 63-51 lead it never relinquished.
The shorthanded squad, with Shawn Jones and DJ Stewart resting while Justin Cobbs and Jaka Blazic played very limited minutes, was paced by Gregor Glas, who netted 23 points, and Dragic, who collected 18 points and 9 rebounds. Alexander Shashkov finished with 18 points and 12 rebounds.
In the semifinals on Friday, Cedevita will face Helios Domzale, with the winner playing in Saturday's final against the winner between Rogaska and Krka Novo Mesto.
