Cyber EuroCup: Uros Drasinover’s Joventut Crushes Jonas Koitka’s Gran Canaria in Game 2 to Advance
The 1/8 Finals of the Cyber EuroCup Online League delivered another decisive outcome as Serbian gamer Uros Drasinover, controlling Joventut Badalona, cruised to a 77-52 victory over Jonas Koitka from Essen, Germany, managing Dreamland Gran Canaria. The dominant win sealed a 2-0 series sweep, propelling Uros into the quarterfinals where he will meet Dubai BC and Turkish standout Bora Kolday—a final showdown before the prestigious Final Four.
This Game 2 matchup in NBA2K25 with real-life Euroleague rosters showcased Drasinover’s tactical excellence and defensive pressure, holding Jonas’s Gran Canaria to just 52 points across four quarters. Joventut exploded early, building a commanding 47-21 halftime lead with a relentless 28-point second quarter that left little room for doubt.
A First-Half Onslaught That Set the Tone
Joventut’s 19-11 first quarter opened the floodgates, but it was the second period that buried Gran Canaria. Uros unleashed a 28-10 barrage that showcased elite execution, fast breaks, and second-chance dominance. Despite a slight second-half drop-off, Joventut remained firmly in control, sealing the win with a final score of 77-52.
Total Team Control: Stats Tell the Story
Uros Drasinover’s Joventut outshot Gran Canaria 48% to 31%, with a brutal 54 points in the paint versus only 28 for Jonas Koitka’s side. The Serbian gamer’s squad also tallied 45 bench points and shared the ball beautifully with 20 assists. They pulled down 49 rebounds, 12 of them offensive, compared to Gran Canaria’s 39 total boards.
Defensively, Joventut was suffocating. They logged 11 steals and 8 blocks, forcing 12 turnovers while committing only 8 themselves. Despite hitting only 4-of-18 from deep, their interior dominance and fast-break execution (16 points) more than compensated for perimeter struggles.
Key Performers: Ruzić Leads the Charge
M. Ruzić was electric for Uros, notching 16 points on 7-of-13 shooting, alongside 3 assists and a steal. A. Tomic added 12 points and 9 boards, while I. Platteew contributed a double-digit scoring effort and a team-high 8 rebounds. The depth of Joventut was on full display.
For Jonas Koitka’s Gran Canaria, C. Homesley battled hard with 18 points, but inefficiency (7-of-18 shooting) and lack of consistent help stifled their momentum. G. Conditt IV posted a double-double (11 points, 11 rebounds), yet Gran Canaria simply couldn’t keep pace.
End of the Road and Looking Ahead
With this loss, Jonas Koitka concludes a commendable season, finishing as the 11th seed (13-8) and making a playoff appearance. On social media, Koitka thanked the Cyber EuroCup community, his supporters, and looked ahead to representing Germany in the upcoming EuroBasket tournament.
Meanwhile, Uros Drasinover (6th seed, 14-7) now sets his sights on the quarterfinals, where he will battle Bora Kolday’s Dubai BC for a ticket to the inaugural Final Four of the Cyber EuroCup.
