Elimination was a given for Dinamo who showed up in Bilbao without five players: Bibbins, Renfro, Udom and Sokolowski, plus Gazi on the bench who was not available. The Basques won 77-60, controlling the game after 22-23 minutes in which the white-blue team still managed to respond.

Suffice it to say that at the beginning of the third quarter two bursts by Cappelletti brought Markovic's team to -3 , but at that point Bilbao tightened the tempo and punished any defensive delay.

Among the positive notes are the minutes played by the two youngest. 5 points for the play Trucchetti in 26 minutes and 6 points for the pivot Vincini in 23 minutes.

The best scorer for Banco was the guard-forward Fobbs with 17 points . For Bendzius 8 rebounds but only 6 points in an evening where he appeared short of energy like Halilovic.
