Game recap: In the last game of the Round 17 of the AdmiralBet ABA League season, Partizan Mozzart Bet have prevailed over Mega MIS in their Štark Arena in Belgrade. It’s game of a special character, as both teams, together with the gathered fans in the Arena, have honoured the memory of the recently deceased Dejan Milojević, who had firm ties with both teams during his playing and coaching career. Also, while doing so, they have set the new all-time AdmiralBet ABA League single-game attendance record, as no less than 23,021 fans have visited the stands in Štark Arena this time around.

With this win, Partizan Mozzart Bet have protected their second place in the standings, where they now stand alone with a 13:4 record, while on the other side, Mega MIS are now on a 9:8 record, two wins above the edge of the Playoffs Zone.

Key moments: After a close game in the first quarter, which ended with a one-point lead for Mega MIS, Partizan Mozzart Bet have pulled away in the second. They have opened the quarter with a 19:5 run in the opening five minutes, which gave them double-digit lead (44:31). As it turned out later in the game, the visiting side did not manage to bounce back again afterwards after this blow and these can be labeled as the key moments of the game.

Man of the match: James Nunnally has been the key player of Partizan Mozzart Bet on their way to their win, as he had 24 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists, and a valuation of 20 on his record!

Can’t trick the stats: Partizan Mozzart Bet have dominated the rebounding contest, as they had 29 rebounds and Mega MIS 22. That’s what was crucial for their easy win in the end, despite them being a better of two squads in many statistical categories.
