“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.
