Story of the game: In the opening game of the AdmiralBet ABA League Round 8, Borac Mozzart are hostin Mornar-Barsko zlato at home in their Borac Sports Hall, Čačak.

Borac will be chasing their first win of the season this time, as they have been defeated every single time so far. And their fans are sensing that this one may be the game where they have a fair chance of bouncing back from the slow start to the season. Not only will they be playing at home, but they will also face Mornar, that have only won 1 game out of their last 5 and one could say that they are not demonstrating their best possible game right now.

As history teaches us, the games between the Čačak and Bar squads have always been interesting and it has always been extremely difficult to predict their outcomes. The two squads have faced each other four times so far in the history of the AdmiralBet ABA League and each of them have snatched two victories before.

Both of them are currently the top scorers of their respective squads, with Hale currently averaging 18.6 points per contest and Russell 26.9 points per contest. Who will score more and take their team to the win this time?
