Dinamo Sassari got its fourth straight victory (seventh overall) after defeating The Flexx Pistoia at home 88 – 81. The hosts suffered more than expected but they managed to continue their winning streak.
Scott Bamforth’s 24 points (5 three-pointers) and 6 assists paced Sassari and Dyshawn Pierre contributed with a double-double (16 points and 10 rebounds). Jaylen Bond had 17 points and 8 boards for the visitors.
The game was tight for three quarters (65 – 61) before a late surge by Sassari. The winners reached its biggest lead of the game with two minutes remaining (87 – 69). Pistoia tried to reduce the difference but it was too big to overcome.
Over the day, we had two more home wins. Reggio Emilia defeated Varese while Capo d’Orlando had a 1-point difference win against Brindisi.
