Notes
- First week of fixtures on 5 October 1985 included a game in Zagreb between Cibona and visiting Smelt Olimpija. Since the visitors failed to fulfill their player registration administrative obligations in time, they were left without entire first team roster for the regular season opening game and had to field junior players. Cibona for their part decided to send out a mixed roster consisting of players from their youth system plus their 21-year-old superstar Dražen Petrović who used the opportunity to shatter Radivoj Korać's single game Yugoslav League scoring record from 1962 when he scored 74 points for OKK Beograd versus Mladost Zemun. In a 158-77 blowout against the hapless Ljubljana team, Petrović scored 112 points on 40 for 60 field goal shooting that included 10 for 20 three-point shooting.[1]
- Cibona dominated the regular season with only a single loss in 22 games, thus equaling a feat of one regular season loss that had previously been managed only by Zadar in 1974-75 and Crvena Zvezda in 1949. Behind young Dražen Petrović's scoring exploits (his regular season scoring average was 43.3 points per game), the Zagreb club opened the campaign 20-0 before losing 102-100 away to Šibenka (Petrović's old team) in the second last game of the regular season — a contest in which Petrović recorded 52 points, but Šibenka still managed to eek out a famous win led by Predrag Šarić's (Dario Šarić's father) 36 points.[1]
- Budućnost was the season's biggest surprise package. The unfancied side from Titograd was almost unbeatable at home, losing only one game, against Cibona, in front of its home fans. Led by veterans Duško Ivanović (28.5ppg season average), Dragan Ivanović, Nikola Antić, Milatović, and Jadran Vujačić, the team also received a great contribution from its rising star Žarko Paspalj who turned 20 years of age over the course of the season.[1]
