Game recap: Crvena zvezda mts have sent a clear message to all of their opponents with a convincing win against Koper Primorska at the start of the new season. The red & whites made a stunning defensive performance, letting their opponents score just 64 points for the whole game. Apart from taking the valuable win in the opening round, the reigning ABA League champions also got their revenge on the league newcomers for that defeat in the 2019 ABA Super Cup.

Key moments: Just take a look at the score in the 2nd quarter. Crvena zvezda mts made 17 points in that period, but what is more important is that the red & whites conceded just 3 points along the way! Yes, they let the visitors score just 3 points for the whole quarter! After such a dominant performance in the 2nd quarter, it was clear already at the halftime that Zvezda would have no troubles taking the win.

Man of the match: Lorenzo Brown was criticized after the 2019 ABA Super Cup, but this evening he was simply brilliant. The starting point guard of Crvena zvezda mts scored 18 points, had 10 assists, while his overall index rating was 30.

Can’t trick the stats: it is enough just to write that Zvezda were up by 36 points at one moment of this game. No more stats needed.
