Story of the game: Zadar will host Mega MIS this Monday evening in Round 3 of the 2022/23 AdmiralBet ABA League season.
The home team have previously won 1 out of their 2 games, while we should also mention that they presented an excellent performance in both of those matches. Recall that Zadar defeated SC Derby at home court in the opening round by 96:67, while then they lost the away game against Mornar-Barsko zlato after a truly epic battle in Topolica Sports Hall – 91:100.
On the other side, Mega MIS did not really started the new season according to their plan as they are still winless after the first two rounds. The Pink troops were defeated by FMP Meridian on the opening weekend – 76:90, while then they lost the home game against Igokea m:tel – 76:87.
It is really hard to tell which side might take the role of the favorites ahead of this match. Zadar are very good at home court, which they proved two weeks ago, but Mega MIS have won 3 out of the previous 4 road games in Zadar.
Match-up in focus: Zadar’s star player Luka Božić is having a fantastic season so far. He averaged 32 points per game in the opening two weeks, while his average index rating at this moment is 41!
On the other side, Mega MIS’ best player so far in this season is Malcolm Cazalon who is currently the 4th best scorer in the league with the average score of 18 points per game.
Head-to-head in the regional league: In total 7:11; In Zadar 4:5.
