It's well-known that a fantastic atmosphere prevails among Crvena Zvezda's basketball players, largely coordinated by Chima Moneke, who holds significant influence over his teammates. He's now trying to leverage that influence in the best possible way for the club.

Crvena Zvezda has secured a EuroLeague play-in spot, and it remains to be seen if they can directly qualify for the playoffs, or from which position they will enter the play-in tournament.

Following a crucial victory against ASVEL in Lyon, Red Star fans received excellent news: their beloved Ebuka Izundu extended his contract for another two years. Based on comments left by his teammates, such as Jared Butler, on the announcement of this signing, it appears other players are also very close to continuing their careers in Belgrade.

It seems Moneke enjoys the Serbian capital but doesn't want to change his company there. The latest player on Chima's list for a contract extension is Jordan Nwora.

"Just sign the contract, literally. Make me happy!" Moneke wrote to Nwora in the comments section of the Zvezda guard's latest post.

It's well-known that a long list of teams are interested in the former Efes player, and Nwora has attracted significant attention with his performances. It's also clear what a blow it would be for Zvezda if he weren't on the team's roster next season.

Crvena Zvezda faces Real Madrid in their final EuroLeague round, and a victory could mean a lot for Saša Obradović's squad.
