Halved by injuries but irreducible, Dinamo beat Promitheas 90-89 in the final for third place in the Tel Aviv quadrangular in Israel.
Difficult start for Bucchi's blue and white who, in addition to the absences of the injured Tyree, Charalampopoulos and Bendzius, kept the tired Diop out as a precaution. The Sassari team ended up at -9 but came back driven by point guard Whittaker, who was increasingly a leader.
The Greeks tried to push forward again but Dinamo also using the Dutch winger Van Eyck (joined for the pre-season) and the eighteen-year-old Pisanu in their rotations and kept close and in the final they overtook with two triples and free throws from Kruslin. Promitheas had 14 seconds to set up the winning action, but Sassari's excellent defense resulted in a recovered ball.
Best scorer was pivot Gombauld with 17 points. Of note are Treier's 16 points, Kruslin's 15 and Cappelletti's 10, while Whittaker came close to a double double: 13 points and 9 assists.
