The thrilling overtime victory over Pesaro is already behind them. League leaders Avellino arrive at the PalaSerradimigni on Sunday at 6:00 PM. "A very strong and united team," coach Luca Vitali warned.
The numbers speak for themselves: the league's best offense (82 points per game), thanks in part to 20 assists, which allowed them to shoot 56% from two. They lost only one game in nine games, 83-70 in Brindisi, but that was likely because their offensive leader, point guard Francis, was injured after two minutes and couldn't average his usual 20 points.
Dinamo is expected to play an even more solid game, with little or no smudges, because getting double-digit runs or committing two or three simple errors in a row can open the door for their opponents, who rotate as many as ten players. Coach Vitali reiterates: "We need to maintain consistency in our performances in front of our fans to relive the great atmosphere we had on Wednesday."
