<p>The Mornar basketball team faced a decisive defeat against Zadar tonight (100:69), confirming their last-place status for the season. Whether they will face relegation now rests on the decision from the ABA League.</p>
<p>From the onset, Barani took the lead, and the game shifted dramatically in the third quarter when Zadar executed a 12:0 run, securing a 65:45 advantage.</p>
<p>"I extend my congratulations to Zadar for a well-deserved victory. Unfortunately, it was evident from the first minute that we were not in a good place; within the first few minutes, we committed five turnovers. You can't expect positive outcomes with such a start. In the first half alone, we had seven turnovers, while Zadar seized 11 offensive rebounds, translating to 18 extra possessions. The difference in quality was clear, and I don't have much else to add," remarked Mornar coach Mihailo Pavićević following the game.</p>
<p>This season, Mornar has only achieved two wins in the league—both at home, against Cibona and Krka.</p>
<p>"We’ve been navigating a tough situation as a club for objective reasons over the past two seasons. Even larger clubs face similar crises; Zadar experienced something similar. I always emphasize that players are ultimately responsible for the team’s success, and as the coach, I bear the largest responsibility for our poor results. Discussions about league expansion are underway, which would be beneficial, but if it doesn’t materialize, it won’t be the end of the world," concluded Pavićević.</p>
