 Playing with a depleted roster, the season turned out to be a write-off as it quickly became clear this Partizan squad was no match for tougher Yugoslav clubs.Their deficiencies were especially evident at center as Pecarski who in the absence of Divac got forced into playing long minutes was often outplayed by the opposition's center line.Partizan finished the season in 8th place with a 9-13 record, missing the playoffs — the club's worst league finish in nineteen years.
