Finally, Dinamo. The Sassari team approached the match with a decent pace, but more importantly, they stepped up their game after halftime and decisively defeated Caserta. The victory propels the white-and-blues toward the promotion playoffs.
Without the American Nze (physical problems) but with the point guard Monaldi who was the protagonist from the start with triples and Nobili who was close to the basket where he was very effective (17 points), Banco di Sardegna started on par with the team coached by the former Lino Lardo (20-19) and after five lean minutes in attack in the second quarter they were able to get back into the swing of things and with a 9-1 run they regained the momentum, closing at +3 with a triple from a Michele Vitali who finally broke the deadlock.
In the third quarter, the defense became more solid, the collaborations between Nobili and Brooks worried the visiting defense who closed in the paint leaving more space for shooters around the arc and Dinamo ran away: +15 in the 29th minute with a tap-in dunk by Aromando.
The final quarter was under control, with coach Luca Vitalia finishing with youngsters Cipriano and Fara, plus Longo and Pisano. In addition to Grande, who scored 18 points, the other four white-and-blues scored in double figures: Nobili and Monaldi each scored 17, and Riismaa and Brooks each scored 12.
