In their opening game of the AdmiralBet ABA League season, Cedevita Olimpija have prevailed over Borac Mozzart at home in Stožice Arena with a convincing performance. It has been a game, where the hosts have been a better of the two squads and have been in front throughout the playing time, cruising towards the well-deserved win in the end.
After the hosts pulled away 6:0 at the very beginning of the clash, it turned out that Borac did manage only once (22:23) to get in front of their opponents during the game. However, the key moments came in the second quarter. After Borac Mozzart took the 22:23 lead, Cedevita Olimpija pushed up the tempo, got in front again quickly and kept increasing their advantage all until the halftime, when they were up 51:39. These have been the key moments of the Round 1 game in Stožice.
Edo Murić led the way in scoring this time for the Dragons, as he put in 18 points for Cedevita Olimpija. Yogi Ferrell and Alen Omić added 17 apiece, while Amar Alibegović had 16 points and Aaron Harrison 12.
