Châlons-Reims, which had started a recovery after two victories, suffered from the awakening of Nanterre on Saturday during the 24th day of Jeep Elite. At home, the Ile-de-France residents, who remained on two defeats in the Championship and an elimination from the Eurocup on Tuesday against Badalone, dominated the Champenois (96-71) without conceding a single quarter with a balanced collective and seven players between nine and sixteen points.

After rebuilding its team, Gravelines-Dunkerque confirmed its previous success against Le Mans and won at Roanne (89-76) with a good part of the Slovenian rookie Aleksej Nikolic (21 points to 6 out of 7 to three points) and this despite twenty stray bullets, eleven more than the Choir. The BCM relied on a big first half (50-27) and on a defense that left the Roanne attack to 37% success for a fourth loss in a row.
