Virtus Segafredo Bologna punched in a comfortable win, 84-68, over Estra Pistoia in Unipol Arena on Sunday.
Following a home loss to Anadolu Efes in Round 1 of the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague Regular Season, the team coached by Luca Banchi went up to 2-0 in Italy’s LBA UnipolSai Regular Season.
Isaia Cordinier stood out with 16 points to go with eight rebounds and four assists. Marco Belinelli chipped in 12 points, including his 3,500th in the top-flight division of Italy. Will Clyburn and Achille Polonara joined Devontae Cacok (knee) on the sidelines.
Reacting to a EuroLeague loss at the hands of AS Monaco, similar one-sided traffic led EA7 Emporio Armani Milan to a 100-75 victory versus Dinamo Banco di Sardegna Sassari and a 1-1 LBA tally. Zach LeDay and Nikola Mirotic both scored 15 points in Unipol Forum.
Leandro Bolmaro was forced to an early exit due to a left ankle sprain. Besides Josh Nebo (groin), Armoni Brooks and Fabien Causeur were ruled out for the Round 2 affair.
