Down-the-line.com will broadcast a live online text-to-air broadcast: Basketball. VTB United League. The final. Fifth game. UNICS – Lokomotiv Kuban
UNICS are on the verge of claiming the first VTB United League trophy after four defeats in the final against CSKA Moscow. This time the army team did not reach the main series, they were sensationally eliminated by Lokomotiv Kuban. Krasnodar, after a gritty win over CSKA, pulled out the first game of the final series, winning it 88:76 and it was UNICS’ first home loss in this qualifier. However, the Kazan team won on home soil 79:76 and won twice in Krasnodar. The games were very tense, but UNICS was lucky to win both – the third game with the score of 82:81 and the fourth in overtime – 90:88. As a result, we can see that all three UNICS wins were achieved with a difference of 1, 2 and 3 points. “Locomotive-Kuban” is simply unlucky in the endings. A tense game is also expected today, it is unlikely to see a repeat of the first game of the series, when Krasnodar won +12. But even if Lokomotiv Kuban wins today, it will be extremely difficult for Krasnodar to pull out the whole series, winning three matches in a row. UNICS are very close to the title this season.
As for the hero of the final series, while the best basketball player is Daryl Macon, he scored the most for his team in three out of four games. In “Lokomotiv-Kuban” Jaylen Burford is the leader, he was the best of his team in two out of four games.
