AdmiralBet ABA League Round 7, Friday, 5 November 2021:

SC DERBY - BORAC

Where? Morača Sports Hall, Podgorica

When? 20:00

Story of the game: In the opening game of the AdmiralBet ABA League Round 7, SC Derby will be hosting Borac at home in Morača Sports Hall, Podgorica.

It will be a game of two squads, that are currently positioned near the middle of the AdmiralBet ABA League standings with SC Derby having a 3:3 record so far and Borac 2:4. Also, both of them will be entering their 7th round games following the defeats in the recent rounds, with the difference that SC Derby have lost their last game and Borac their last two games.

So, the question that is being set ahead of the Round 7 opener is whether SC Derby or Borac can get back to the winning track.

With no history of the two squads playing one against another in the official games so far, whatsoever, it remains to us to tune in on Friday night and see ourselves what the outcome of the clash would be. Any predictions right now are impossible to make.

Match-up in focus: Kyle Vinales or Hunter Hale? The two excellent Americans, dominant players of their squads, will battle in the backcourt and try to take their respective squads to the victory. Both of them are currently the top scorers of their squads, with Vinales averaging 22 points per game so far in the AdmiralBet ABA League so far, and Hunter Hale averaging 14 points per game so far. On the other hand, Vinales is currently also the top passer of SC Derby with 5.8 assists dished out on average for his team, while Hale is right now the second-leading passer of Borac with an average of 2.8 assists per game.

Head to head in the regional league: 0:0.
