Crvena Zvezda moved up to a 14-3 record in the ABA League after smashing MZT Skopje on the road 92-58. It was an easy night for the Serbian team as they were dominating the floor.
The hosts were able to follow Zvezda’s pace only in the first quarter which they lost only by 3 points (21-18). After that, the visiting squad showed their full strength.
Dusan Alimpijevic’s players stepped up their defense allowing MZT to score only 7 points in the second period. After that, tt was a one-sided game after that as MZT suffered their 14th loss of the season.
Ognjen Dobric couldn’t be stopped tonight and posted a game-high 23 points for Crvena Zvezda. He was relentless from the three-point territory as he knocked down 7 triples (7/9).
Andrej Maslinko tried to save MZT with 15 points, but it wasn’t enough.
On Saturday Partizan beat Cibona at home thanks to a superb game by Novica Velickovic.
