Salvation speech archived. The success in Cremona is worth +8 on the penultimate place and leaves the door ajar to the Final 8 of the Italian Cup. The defense was decisive in the second half: just 21 points conceded. It is the second away victory for a Banco di Sardegna that seems to have found a decent consistency of performance. Positive debut of the new acquisition Gazi (the best for plus/minus) and double figures in attack for Bibbins (18 points), Bendzius (13) and Cappelletti (11) but Renfro also did very well with 9 points, 7 rebounds and 4 blocks.
CHRONICLE - Shocking start for Sassari who suffers the aggressiveness of Cremona and an overflowing Dreznjak against Bendzius: 16-2 at 4'. It is the bench that gives energy to Banco, with the new entry Gazi (two recoveries and two counterattacks), Renfro and Cappelletti who together with Bibbins becomes a factor in the comeback where Bendzius re-emerges as a shooter: -2 before 44-40 at halftime.
In the third quarter many mistakes. Dinamo makes fewer, equalizing with a stop and shot by Bibbins and overtaking with a recovery and dunk by Halilovic: 48-50 at 27'.
In the last quarter the defense continues to hold and the attack becomes fluid, with the Italians' triples, so much so that the deficit grows to an unexpected size.
