In the game that concluded Week 20 in the Italian League, Leonessa Brescia defeated Enel Brindisi 74 – 60 thanks to a powerful effort on both ends down the stretch.
The two teams entered the final period with the score 54 – 49 and Brescia proceeded to fully its own rhythm that allowed them to win the quarter 20 – 10.
The trio of Marcus Landry (18 points), Michele Vitali (16 points) and Brian Sacchetti (14 points), plus Benjamin Ortner who finished with 9 points and 13 rebounds stood out of the winning squad.
Nic Moore was the top scorer of Brindisi with 15 points.
As to the rest of the action this week in Italy, Austin Daye’s incredible game-winner against Virtus Bologna stole the show, along with the offensive masterclass of Olimpia Milano vs. Cantu.
