Crvena Zvezda will play in the final of the Serbian Cup after a win in the semifinal against FMP 98-82.
Milko Bjelica had 16 points for the winners, but it was Dylan Ennis who stole the show with a performance that you don’t see often.
Ennis came off the bench late in the first quarter and scored a buzzer-beating three-pointer at the end of the first period.
The Canadian went off in the second quarter. He just couldn’t be denied as his hand was red hot. He nailed 17 points in the second quarter on a 5-6 shooting from downtown, finishing the first half with 20 points in only 11 minutes on the floor. With Ennis calling the shots, Zvezda went up by 7 after the first half (51-44).
In the second half Zvezda finished the job to advance in another title game. Dragan Apic couldn’t prevent that with his 21 points and 5 rebounds for FMP.
Zvezda will meet archrival Partizan Belgrade in the final game on Sunday. The Black and Whites beat Mega Bemax in the second semi-final game 89-79. Vanja Marinkovic led the winning side with 18 points, while Vlatko Cancar had game-high 20 points for Mega.
