Elite: ASVEL above

ASVEL is launching again. This Sunday evening, as part of the 6th day of Betclic Elite, Villeurbanne, who remained on two consecutive defeats in all competitions, recovered well by winning on the floor of Saint-Quentin ( 63-77),
thanks especially to their American Shaquille Harrison (13 points, 4 rebounds, 4 assists) and the Senegalese Mbaye Ndiaye (13 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists). The Villeurbannais, after acknowledging the first two points of this meeting, then went directly to the front. Their lead continued to grow, allowing them to race in front until the end of this meeting and take the lead in the ranking.

Bourg-en-Bresse in a good position in the ranking

Like Villeurbanne, Bourg-en-Bresse also returned to victory. The club won, also after two defeats in a row in all competitions, on the floor of Gravelines-Dunkerque (75-83). The visitors were led especially by their Belarusian Maksim Salash (21 points, 7 rebounds)who finished as the top scorer in this meeting, tied with the American from Gravelines-Dunkerque Chris Babb (21 points, 1 rebound, 1 assist). It was only at the start of the second quarter that Bourg-en-Bresse took matters into their own hands, at the level of the scoreboard, just not seen again. In the ranking, the JL is in third place, and Gravelines-Dunkerque finds itself in seventh place.

Nanterre took his time

In the third and final game of the evening, Nanterre 92, who remained for its part in a series of three consecutive defeats in all competitions, won very clearly, at home, against Chalon -sur-Saône (91-70). In Nanterre, it was the American Franck Jackson who finished as the main scorer of this meeting, with personal statistics of 22 points, 1 rebound and 2 assists. However, the first quarter was for Chalon-sur-Saône, who led from start to finish. During the second, the two teams were more neck and neck. Only after returning from the locker room did the locals take definitive control.
