The other strongman of the game will remain the US-born Hungarian Damian Hollisauthor of 12 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists coming off the bench.
The Petro also made the difference in defense by completely blocking the two main opposing dangers: Will Perryonly 7 points and Bourama Sidibé – The Best Of Bourama Sidibé (5 points, 4 rebonds).
Beira had to rely on Najeal Young (17 points) and Makhtar Gueye (13 points, 6 rebounds) but as the strong Senegalese winger noted at the end of the game: “our bench will have to help us a little more if we want to get out of this”.
