ABA League Round 20, Saturday, 2.3.2019:

IGOKEA - MORNAR

Where? Laktaši Sports Hall, Laktaši

When? 17:00

Story of the game: Extremely important game is coming up for both teams in Laktaši, where Igokea will be hosting Mornar at the opening of the ABA League Round 20. Let’s just remember the fact that Igokea are currently sharing the 10th place in the standings with Petrol Olimpija, only a win away from the very bottom and that Mornar, on the other side, are just one win up the standings.

Therefore it’s clear how much is at stake this time around. The team that would grab a new pair of points would breathe a lot easier with two rounds remaining in the regular season. And… it would also end their losing streak, as Igokea have lost 3 games in a row lately and Mornar 2.

How about tradition? In Laktaši, the teams have met twice so far with each team celebrating victory once. Overall, Mornar have won 3 times out of their five games against Igokea.

Match-up in focus: This time around we will have a special match-up in focus in the paint as the brothers will battle one against another! It is Marko against Uroš Luković! It’s not necessary to present the qualities of Uroš Luković specifically, as he is well-known to be one of the best shot blockers and rebounders of the league and he also can dunk as a beast to boost the morale of his team just when it’s necessary. On the other side, Marko Luković is known for his scoring abilities from different positions on the court. Who will prevail this time?

Head to head in the regional league: In total 2:3; In Laktaši 1:1.
