Neither team can say that the previous couple of weeks were successful for them, but Mornar and Zadar now have a chance to get back on the winning track.
ABA League 9th round, Sunday, 13.11.2016:
Where? S.C. Topolica, Bar
When? 21:00
Story of the game: Mornar have suffered three consecutive defeats in ABA League. Still, as much that streak sounds awful, it must be mentioned that the squad from Bar faced Budućnost VOLI, Crvena zvezda mts and Cedevita in those 3 rounds, so that 0-3 score was kind of expected. Now, Mornar return to their home where they will host Zadar, and everyone in Bar hope that their team can break the losing streak on Sunday evening.
The situation in Zadar is only slightly better. The boys coached by Ante Matulović lost their two previous games, so it is very important for them to get back on the winning track as soon as possible in order to return to the top part of the standings.
Match-up in focus: Mornar center Octavious Ellis has incredible physical abilities and therefore he is quite a powerful defensive weapon for his team. It will be interesting to see will he be able to stop the 2nd best scorer of ABA League, Zadar big guy Ivan Marinković.
Head to head in regional league: 0:0.
