Mornar ended the series of difficult matches at the start of the AdmiralBet ABA League with another defeat, the third in the same number of matches, the second at home.

After Budućnost Volija and Crvena zvezda, Barane was defeated by Cedevita Olimpija, which in the city under Rumija broke the resistance of Mihailo Pavićević in the second part of the third quarter (92:82).

Then the team of the former Montenegrin coach Zvezdan Mitrović, who did not travel to Bar due to health problems, made a 17:0 series, which went from minus three to the unattainable plus 14 - 71:57.

Mornar tried to get back into the game after that, but it was obvious that in the first 25 minutes he spent too much energy to match his objectively better rival - then he went from mistake to mistake in attack, allowing the people of Ljubljana to score easy points and secure the first triumph in the regional competition this season.

Be that as it may, the Rams showed progress in this game too, so in the next duels they can attack for the first victory - next are visits to Mega and Spartak, as well as matches in "Topolica" with Borec and Cibona, where the Montenegrin team certainly sees a chance to move from the bottom tables...

Brenden Jenkins with 25 points was once again Mornar's best individual, Džamari Smit scored 15, as much as Ilija Đoković. Lovre Runjić (10) also had a double-digit performance.
