Nikola Kalinic leads Zvezda in scoring with 13.4 points per game and has also contributed 3.8 rebounds and 3.1 assists per game. Ponitka is tied for the team lead with 4.8 rebounds and is second on the team in assists with 2.6. Less of a scoring threat. Ponitka has averaged just 4.8 points per game, but he has been a double-digit scorer in the past. Neither player was at his best when these teams last but – Ponitka scored 2 points and had 0 assists, while Kalinic scored 11, but committed 7 turnovers – and they will be eager to shine this time.
