There was no real suspense between Lyon-Villeurbanne and Gravelines-Dunkerque, deprived of Corey Davis, and which could only create an illusion in the face of the Villeurbanne workforce, however deprived of Antoine Diot or Moustapha Fall. Guerschon Yabusele and Allerik Freeman quickly blew up the opposing zone with two 3-point baskets.
The success of @6Bourhis 3 points was not enough against the opposing offensive armada

The BCM then took an avalanche of long shots, exercise in which the ASVEL finished the first act at 7/11, with a Charles Kahudi also in the game (28-18). The locals drove home the point by attacking the second quarter with a 9-0 signed trio Cole-Lacombe-Yabusele (37-18). Allerik Freeman was responsible for increasing the score with three baskets in a row including two missiles from afar, placing the Maritimes at -25 at the break (57-32).
+32 on recovery …
It was then the turn of Paul Lacombe to shine with a 3 points and a dunk to widen the chasm between the two teams (64-32). The BCM however raised its head, by a 10-0 at the end of the third quarter marked by the good passage of Gavin Ware (72-53) then some personal exploits of Lucas Bourhis. Insufficient, however, to shake ASVEL who quickly picked up the line to win 96-68 with a Matthew Strazel involved (11 points, 6 assists) and a Charles Kahudi in metronome, top scorer (17 points) ahead of the pair Freeman-Yabusele (16 points each).
Between the 15/31 at 3 points from ASVEL and the 23 stray balls from Gravelin, the BCM could not hope for much in this match …
