Defending champions Monaco eliminated from the French Cup in the semifinal

By Eurohoops team / info@eurohoops.net

Monaco has dominated France this season, but Paul Lacombe and his teammates didn’t falter, leaving them without a trophy.

Sasa Obradovic‘s side lost 93-89 to SIG Strasbourg in the French Cup semifinals and won’t be defending their crown. Massimo Cancellieri’s team will, therefore, fight for the trophy against JDA Dijon in the final.

Paul Lacombe was the star of the match, scoring 30 points with six assists and four rebounds against his former team, but he had a trusty companion in Tyrus McGee, who scored 25 points on 5/6 shooting from beyond the arc.

Despite Mike James and Elie Okobo each scoring 27 points, it didn’t help the favorites, with Matthew Strazel following the duo with 12 points.
