Here is the first European victory of the season. Fundamental. Sassari conquers Ludwigsburg 89-79 and reopens not only the discussion of the Champions League but also that of the championship, because it draws strength from the victory in Germany. In the best team effort of the season, a worthy mention for the Gombauld-McKinnie duo: 31 points and 21 rebounds together.
As against Varese, the blue and white suffered from the opponent's three-point shot: 10-2 in the 4th minute. Gombauld towers in the area and blocks as well. he is the one who keeps Dinamo alive who then finds new life with changes and overtakes point guard Cappelletti with 5 points in a row: 22-23.
The quintet works with Treier as a fake pivot, who scores from outside and McKinnie who finally makes himself heard on the rebound: +7 for Dinamo in the 13th minute. Instead, Tyree continues to lose balls, but in the end he lights up and reaches his maximum lead: 30-38 in the 16th minute. The blue and whites also reach +9 before the mid-match partial: 38-45.
In the third quarter the Bank reached +10 twice, with Gombauld and McKinnie also making their presence felt on the rebound.
In the last one McKinnie again with the help of Tyree for the maximum advantage: 59-73 in the 32nd minute. Ludwigsburg gets dangerously close with Childs and Melson: 79-82 in the 38th minute. Whittaker's triple and Tyree's entry close it.
