On a comfortable lead for most of the 40 minutes, Crvena Zvezda Meridianbet made short work of Zadar en route to the win, 95-76, in Kresimir Cosic Hall Sunday.

From the season-high 28 points at Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv Thursday, Nemanja Nedovic poured 29 points while switching from the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague to AdmiralBet ABA League Regular Season Round 19. The experienced guard connected 9/17 from the field, including 4/6 from beyond the arc.

Still ineligible to play at the continental level, Facundo Campazzo added ten points and nine assists to his solid run in ABA. Luka Mitrovic with 13 points and Ognjen Dobric with 12 points wrapped up the double-digit scoring field for the team coached by Dusko Ivanovic. John Holland, Miroslav Raduljica, Stefan Markovic, and Ognjen Kuzmic did not suit up.

Luka Bozic drew up a team-high 25 points for Zadar. Dario Dreznjak ended up with 21 points.

Similar to the Belgrade rival, Partizan Mozzart Bet banked in a comfortable win, 114-84, against Borac Mozzart in Aleksandar Nikolic Hall wrapping up Round 19 later Sunday.

Highlighting the field of seven double-digit scorers behind 7/8 two-pointers, Mathias Lessort recorded a team-high 19 points. Drawing his best performance of the 2022-23 season at the club level, young Israeli guard Yam Madar went for 16 points with 5/6 field goals. Promising center Tristan Vukcevic also put in 16 points.

Zach LeDay did not dress for the team coached by Zeljko Obradovic. Balsa Koprivica (illness) was sidelined as well.
