After last season’s sweep in the VTB Finals, CSKA did it again against Nizhny. The champs won the series with 3-0 wins over last season’s finalists this time in the semis after their third victory in three games. CSKA will face in the VTB finals Lokomotiv Kuban or Khimki.
In tonight’s 92-80 win CSKA had five players in double digits and Vorontsevich (16p.) started the game with fury scoring 14 points during the first seven minutes! Nizhny relied on Kinsey and Thompkins who scored 26 out of the 46 first half points of their team.
In the third period, Sasha Kaun took over and a little before the end of the third quarter, CSKA led by +17 (58-75).
