AS Monaco was dominant from start to finish and ultimately crushed Pau Orthez 94 – 65 to begin the French Jeep Elite semifinals in the best possible way.
Six players scored in double figures for Monaco that delivered a powerful performance on both ends. Yakuba Outtara stood out with 15 points plus six rebounds, Will Thomas dropped 13 points and Donta Hall had 11 points, seven boards and plenty of highlights like this one.

Brandon Jefferson (15 points), Gregor Hrovat (13 points) and Vitalis Chikoko (12 points) were the best Orthez has to offer. The Pau side was unable to contain Monaco’s offense or at least respond and will look to bounce back in Game 2.
