ratiopharm Ulm-Dolomiti Energia Trento | Round 6 Highlights | 2024-25 BKT EuroCup
It was a fast-paced start which saw Bourg jump to a 7-12 lead with a pair of buckets from Kokila. Brown scored 6 points in a hurry but Toto Forray matched that to bring the host back, 23-23, after 10 minutes. Baskets were evenly traded early in the second quarter before Kamar Baldwin's triple gave Trento a rare lead, 31-29. Long-range strikes from Jeremy Morgan and Brown brought Bourg back in front, 37-39, and Brown's buzzer-beating layup extended the margin to 38-44 for the visitors at the interval.
Mike hit a couple of quick-fire three-balls early in the second half as Bourg threatened to pull away, but two scores from Ellis kept Trento hoping before Biligha added 5 fast points to tie it up, 57-57. Both offenses struggled at the end of the third, which finished 59-62 after a three-pointer by Zaccharie Risacher. A smooth alley-oop between Ellis and Myles Stephens tied it, 63-63, early in the final period, but three-pointers from Brown and Salash pushed Bourg back ahead. Inside scores from Benitez and Salash stretched it to 67-77, the first double-digit margin, and it was too late for Trento to respond.
