This time the sprint rewards Bucchi 's team that wins in “his” Napoli for 78-72. A very heavy success that is worth sixth place and keeps Dinamo in the running for fifth.
Race conducted for a long time by biancoblù, even with double-digit advantages, but in the final it took two defensive rebounds from Bendzius who conquered and scored 4 free throws to tame the hosts.
Kruslin returns as a quintet. Sassari defends well and starts very fast on the counterattack, giving the first small break to the match: 4-10 in the 4 'with a Robinson 's basket in much better condition than the match against Venice. The advantage touches the +10 with a triple from Kruslin's corner.
The changes come in, better those of Naples who with Vitali and Uglietti promotes a break of 13-2 that puts the game back in balance: 20-19 at 11 '.
4 points from Gentile bring the biancoblù forward: +5 at 12 '. Banco also uses zone 3-2 to protect his own basket. Logan makes two rings, triple and stolen with a counterattack and Dinamo regains altitude: 25-35 in the 15 '. Dinamo also goes to +13 with Treier from below on an assist from Logan, while the hosts removed Rich and the free (20 in a time against the 8 Sassari) struggled in attack.
Coach Buscaglia calls the area and Banco, who plays without long, loses his shine, while Napoli gains confidence and with Mc Duffie's triple and free gets closer: 37-43.
Upon returning, the Sassari attack is not brilliant, he misses a few too many shots and Naples with Rich and Gudaitis impacts (49-49 at 26 ') and overtakes with a dunk by Uglietti: 51-49. Logan reacts and breathes again: +4. McDuffie is unleashed and Napoli puts his nose back in the last quarter: 62-61 in the 33rd minute.
Three free from Diop and two bombs from Kruslin and it's +8 for Sassari. And so he remains in the 38th minute with a Bilan's basket, however not brilliant. Napoli never dies, approaches -3 and then -2 with a free shot by Vitali, but Bendzius is icy and from the line makes 4/4 in the last seconds.
