Cordinier 8,5 (in 30' 4/6 two-pointers, 2/5 three-pointers, 2/2 free throws, 2 rebounds, 2 steals, 4 turnovers, 7 assists, XNUMX block) Extraordinary evening for him: first half mainly with defensive and playmaking duties, in the second half and especially at the end he took the stage with three-pointers, an almost impossible basket and the winning points in overtime.

Benelli 6 (in 17' 1/1 from two, 0/1 from three, 2 rebounds, 2 assist) First round in the second quarter with XNUMX points scored and little else, in the second half he puts in a few more minutes, but without making an impact and in overtime he puts himself at the service of the team.

Pajola 6,5 (in 9' 2/2 three-pointers, one rebound, one turnover, one assist) He stops due to an ankle problem right at the best moment.

Clyburn 8 (in 31' 7/15 from two, 3/7 from three, 5/8 from free throws, 10 rebounds, one steal, one turnover, 6 assists, 2 blocks suffered) He confirms himself as an indispensable offensive terminal.

Shengelia 6,5 (in 25' 0/3 from two, 1/3 from three, 6/6 from free throws, 4 rebounds, 4 turnovers, 2 assists, XNUMX block) He confirmed himself as an important bulwark on both sides of the court.

Hackett 7,5 (in 23' 0/2 from two, 1/3 from three, 2/2 from free throws, 2 rebounds, one steal, one turnover, 3 assists, one block) The full-court pressure forces him to do extra work as a playmaker, but when it comes to fighting he never backs down.

Morgan 7 (in 26' 0/3 from two, 3/7 from three, 3/3 from the free throw line, 2 rebounds, one steal, one turnover) Usual offensive sniper.

Polonara 7 (in 22' 1/2 two-pointers, 1/2 three-pointers, 1/2 free throws, 6 rebounds, one turnover, one assist) Very useful in rebounding and in the fight under the backboards. He steps up his game with 4 points in overtime.

Diouf 5,5 (one rebound in 5') A few minutes in the first half where, moreover, little is seen.

Zizic 7 (in 20' 4/7 from two, 4/6 from the free throw line, 7 rebounds, one assist, one block suffered) He puts in effort, determination, desire.

Akele 7 (in 17' 1/3 two-pointers, 1/1 three-pointers, 6 rebounds, 2 steal, 2 assists, XNUMX blocks given) Dynamism, athleticism, a lot of fundamental dark work for the team and a fundamental three-pointer at the end.
