Cedevita Olimpija Ljubljana-7-bet Lietkabelis Panevezys | Round 4 Highlights | 2024-25 BKT EuroCup p
Muric, 30, is playing his sixth season in the EuroCup and it has been one of his finest. He has been worth 11.6 points with incredible shooting numbers: 70.3% on two-pointers and 40.4% on threes. He has also contributed 5.8 rebounds and 1.0 steal for an average PIR of 14.0. His rebounding numbers have soared recently; after taking in 3.1 rebounds in the first eight games of the season, Muric has collected 10.3 over the past three games. He had one of his best games of the season against Ulm in Round 8 with 21 points, 8 rebounds and 2 steals for a career-high PIR of 22. However, Blossomgame was even better with 26 points, 11 boards and 3 blocks for a PIR of 35 to win MVP honors for Round 4. Their duel this time will likely have a major impact on the game.
