Dinamo finds victory and confidence in Portugal against a Lisbon that almost never worries: 82-69 in favor of the Sassari team that debuts well in the Europa Cup group.

Halilovic is the pivot in the quintet, with Renfro on the bench. Dinamo starts strong: two triples by Bibbins and two baskets by Halilovic: 2-12 at 3'. The first changes are Tambone and Renfro. Sassari is in control because the Portuguese defense, once it helps, fails to rotate with timing and leaves the opponents alone: 10-22 at 7'. When Sokolowski comes out, Fobbs plays as a small forward. Banco di Sardegna runs riot: already +18 at the end of the first quarter.

The gap even reaches +20 before two bombs from the home team stop the bleeding and produce a substantial break of 14-0: 29-35 at 15'. Halilovic first and then Bendzius take care of taking Sassari out of the offensive paralysis.

In the third quarter the Sassari team constantly maintains a double-digit advantage and Sokolowski and Tambone dig back into the gap: +21 at 26'. The game is practically over and Markovic closes with an Italian quintet.
