Suffers but wins again in the Europe Cup. The 69-66 success over Anwil Wloclawek is worth the first place in the group. Of course, the team from Sassari could have won it with less thrills if they had managed the shots and some actions in the last fraction better, but that's fine for now. Worth noting are the 13 points each for Bibbins and Bendzius, the 12 for Sokolowski and the positive impact of both Halilovic and Tambone.

Dinamo starts well in defense and moves the ball around in attack, the Poles score mostly from the free throw line and on the counterattack: 13-12 at 6'. Anwil overtakes, but Bendzius is a killer (10 points and 7 rebounds), the game ends in perfect parity: 22-22.

In the second quarter the balance remains, even if Bibbins tries to be more aggressive in attack and scores two triples: +4 at 17'. The American playmaker also exaggerates, but it must be said that the defense on the wings of the Sassari team is ruthless, so much so that Bendzius is unable to shoot: 38-39 at halftime.

Upon returning, the home team's outsiders have a hot hand from the arc: 49-4 at 25'. The Italian changes give something and the advantage rises to +8 with a triple by Fobbs at 34', with the teams feeling the fatigue of the intense defense of the first 30 minutes. Dinamo could have closed it out early but misses three times the open bomb of +11 with 5 minutes to go and so must suffer until the end to obtain the legitimate victory.
