Game recap: Dubai Basketball scored another huge win in their first ever AdmiralBet ABA League season as they defeated current league leaders and last season's vice-champions Partizan Mozzart Bet. 

Dubai Basketball started the game in the best possible way for them as they gained a double-digit lead already in the opening quarter – 26:14. In the rest of the match, Partizan Mozzart Bet did their best to make a comeback and despite they managed to cut the gap to 5 points or less in several occasions, every time Dubai Basketball managed to bounce back immediately and to once again escape to a safe distance.

Dubai Basketball have therefore scored their 6^th consecutive win in the 2024/25 AdmiralBet ABA League regular season, while they now have the overall score of 18-5. On the other side, Partizan Mozzart Bet’s 9-game winning run has come to an end so the black-and-whites now once again share the top of the table with Budućnost VOLI as both teams have the overall score of 20-3.

Key moments: Partizan Mozzart Bet managed to reduce the gap to just 3 points – 63:60, with 5 minutes remaining on the game clock, but then Klemen Prepelič showed up for Dubai Basketball. Prepelič scored 5 points in a row, including the 3-pointer from way downtown, to increase the lead of his team to 68:60.

Man of the match: That would be Klemen Prepelič! Dubai Basketball shooting guard scored 9 out of his 11 points in the last 5 minutes of the game to lead his team toward the win.

Can’t trick the stats: Dubai Basketball is well-known for their excellent offense, while this evening their defense brought them the win. They managed to hold Partizan Mozzart Bet to 72 points, while on top of that they forced the black-and-whites to make 14 turnovers.
