Game recap: Mornar have seized one more win in the 2020/21 ABA League regular season as they defeated Igokea in this week’s ABA League match of the round. This was another very convincing performance by the Bar troops who have managed to score no less than 90 points and to beat a very good team of Igokea.

On the other side, the visitors fought as much as they could, considering the fact that they played this game without two of their best big guys - Nikola Jovanović and Jackie Carmichael. They had some good moments in this match, but Mornar’s troops were simply too good this evening.

Mornar now have the overall score of 11-2, while Igokea are at 9-3.

Man of the match: Isaiah Whitehead was the 2^nd best scorer of Mornar in this match (18 points), while he had the highest index rating out of all home-team players (19). He made some very important shots in the 3^rd quarter, helping his team escape on a 20-point lead.

Can’t trick the stats: Apart from scoring 90 points this evening, Mornar were also very good in defending their basket. The home team made 8 steals after which they were able to score some easy points. On the other side, Igokea made just 1 steal for the entire match.
