Basketball is back in Dubai. The team from the United Arab Emirates has announced that Coca-Cola Arena will host the first two games of the ABA League Finals against Partizan Belgrade on Thursday, June 4 and Saturday, June 6.
The ABA League, in coordination with Dubai Basketball and Partizan Belgrade, has confirmed that the opening two games of the Finals will take place in the United Arab Emirates, marking the club’s long-awaited return home after several months away from Dubai: since February, the team coached by Aleksander Sekulic has played their home games in Bosnia and Herzegovina, with Sarajevo and Zenica serving as temporary home venues during the club’s relocation period.
The return to home soil arrives in the club’s most historical moment. Reaching the ABA League Finals is another major milestone in the club’s journey: despite being just its second ABA League season, Dubai Basketball will compete for its first league title in front of its home fans against one of European basketball’s most iconic clubs, Partizan Belgrade.
“We are delighted to bring these Finals games back to Dubai,” said Dejan Kamenjašević, Co-Chief Executive Officer of Dubai Basketball. “Over the past few months, our players, staff, and supporters have shown incredible resilience and commitment. Being able to return home for the biggest games in the club’s history is a special moment for everyone connected to Dubai Basketball.”
“We play these games for Dubai and for our people. Throughout this journey, we have felt the support of our fans wherever we have played, and now we finally have the opportunity to compete in front of them again. We look forward to seeing Coca-Cola Arena full and creating an unforgettable atmosphere for our city, our supporters and for basketball in the region.”
