Despite a delay of eleven points in the 3rd quarter, Thursday evening in the Rhône during the 32nd day of the Euroleague for the 5th confrontation between the two teams this season, Monaco won by ten points (87-77) facing the penultimate in the ranking and can continue to hope to finish in 2nd place.

Staggering on the floor of the LDLC Arena, Monaco can continue to dream of 2nd place. He owes it to his new victory (87-77) – the second in a row following last week’s success at home once morest Valencia – Thursday evening, on the floor of the LDLC Arena once morest ASVEL, our other representative in the competition, on behalf of the 32nd day of the Euroleague. The Monegasques, however, found themselves on the edge of the precipice once morest their French rival for what constituted the fifth confrontation already this season between the two teams. Roca Team won all five (and the last nine).

Two minutes were enough for Monaco to blow up ASVEL

Thus, it was when defeat seemed to be looming for the visitors that they were suddenly able to close the doors in defense, no longer lose a single ball and (finally) score the baskets needed to completely reverse the situation and finish with ten points ahead on the scoreboard, even if the score seems very severe for this ASVEL team which had posed great difficulties to the French champions (for 38 minutes) before completely breaking down in the last two minutes in the face of opposing pressure. Timothé Luwawu-Cabarrot, author of a great match (23 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists), points record at stake, has no reason to blame himself.

This is not the case for his teammates, in particular Paris Lee, who fell through (7 assists but only 6 points). On the Monegasque side, except James, Elie Okobo (16 points), Alpha Diallo (15) and Jarom Blossomgame (13 points, 5 rebounds) were able to lead the way until the end despite an unusual failure of the Monegasques at long distance. But the Roca Team, 3rd in the ranking following this victory, has other assets and that is also why it can still claim 2nd place, even before hosting twice in a row at home.
