Overview

Perspective

On 18 June 2019, the Finals MVP of the Adriatic League and the Serbian League guard Billy Baron extended contract for one more season.[1] On June 24, guard Branko Lazić signed a three-year contract extension.[2] On June 25, guard Filip Čović signed a two-year contract extension.[3] On June 26, forward Boriša Simanić signed a two-year contract extension.[4] On June 28, forward Mouhammad Faye signed a one-year contract extension.[5] On July 2, forward Stratos Perperoglou signed a one-year contract extension.[6] On July 6, guard Ognjen Dobrić signed a two-year contract extension.[7] On 28 August, center Nikola Jovanović signed a new contract.[8] Forward Faye was a member of the Senegal national team at the 2019 FIBA Basketball World Cup in China.

On July 14, center Ognjen Kuzmić was involved in serious traffic accident near Banja Luka, Bosnia and Herzegovina, in which he got life-threatening injuries.[9][10] On July 25, Kuzmić was discharged from the hospital to home care.[11][12]

The Zvezda entered season poorly, getting relegated from ABA Supercup in the first match, losing 2 out of 3 games in ABA and having the same score in EuroLeague. Head coach Milan Tomić resigned less than a month after the season kicked off,[13] leaving assistant Andrija Gavrilović, who never held a head coach position before, as an interim solution.[14] In his official head coaching debut on 24 October, Gavrilović led the Zvezda to a 73–65 loss to FC Barcelona.[15] Gavrilović failed to make any notable progress, which added to the bad atmosphere around the club. Gavrilović finished his stint as the interim head coach with a 5–6 record on 23 November. Upset by his poor performances, the Zvezda fans started booing Filip Čović.[16][17] Club management reacted at the end of December, hiring Dragan Šakota as a head coach and reinforcing squad with center Vladimir Štimac and guard Kevin Punter. Forward Derrick Brown and Faye agreed with the club to terminate their contracts in January. By mid-February the Zvezda loaned Čović and Kuzmić to FMP, bringing in guard Kalin Lucas instead.

Season canceled

On 12 March 2020, ABA League Assembly temporarily suspended the remainder of the 2019–20 season "until further notice" following the coronavirus pandemic.[18] The club still remains to play one game until the end of the regular season and at least the semifinals of the 2020 playoffs. On 12 March 2020, Euroleague announced it was suspending its competitions due to the same reason.[19] At that point, Zvezda held 3rd position in ABA with one round left to be played, and 14th position in Euroleague, with six rounds remaining. On 12 May, the team came back after the break and started with a training program.[20] On 25 May, Euroleague canceled its 2019–20 season. The Zvezda will return to Euroleague for the next season.[21] On 27 May 2020, the ABA League Assembly canceled definitely the 2019–20 season due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[22] The Serbian SuperLeague season was suspended prior its start due to the COVID-19 pandemic. On 28 May, the Serbian League Assembly canceled definitely the 2019–20 season due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[23]
