Gerrmani Brescia displayed an astonishing dominance under the boards against ratiopharm Ulm, pulling down 21 offensive rebounds and outrebounding its opponent 35-53 overall. The visitors took advantage to hold on when Ulm escaped 47-34 in the second quarter and came back in the second to force an overtime that they controlled from the beginning to the end.

“I think we presented ourselves the last games always better, but we allowed 21 offensive rebounds, and that gave them so many second chances”, ratiopharm Ulm head coach Anton Gavel acknowledged in the press conference. “Defensively we collapsed a couple of times, we were miscommunicated, and allowed easy buckets for the Brescia team.”

In a game that went to the line, small details were crucial, and the rebounding battle was key to deciding the winner. Brescia converted 21 second-chance points, against Ulm’s 6. Additionally, the visiting team set new records in both offensive and total rebounding with 21 and 53, respectively. The previous records took place against the same team, in the same month, as Brescia finished with 14 offensive boards in an 83-82 loss in Ulm on October 30, 2018, and with 47 rebounds in an 87-84 win in Brescia on October 7, 2020.

Germani Brescia pulled out a hard-fought win from Ratiopharm Arena as it downed ratiopharm Ulm 90-98 in overtime on Wednesday night. The visitors forced the extra period with a dunk by Kenny Gabriel and opened the overtime with a 2-9 run to take control of the game until the end.

Troy Caupain neared a triple-double with 17 points, 7 rebounds and 8 assists to lead Brescia. Della Valle followed with 17 points, CJ Massinburg provided 16 and 6 assists, and Mike Cobbins contributed 10 for the winners. Matt Mobley led the way for Ulm with 23 points on 6-of-9 shooting from behind the arc, Yago Dos Santos had 16 points and 6 assists and Robin Christen and Devin Robinson added 13 and 12 points, respectively, in defeat.

It took the hosts just 3 minutes to build a 9-1 edge behind 5 points in a row by Dos Santos. Brescia survived thanks to its offensive rebounding power but could not match Mobley’s accuracy from downtown and trailed 27-23 after 10 minutes. Karim Jallow started the fire with two strong drives, as Dos Santos and Fedor Zugic kept punishing Brescia from long range to help Ulm escape to 47-34. Even though Della Valle tried to bring his team back, the fourth three-pointer of the night from Mobley closed the first half with the home team ahead 52-45.

Brescia adjusted its defense after the break and allowed just 4 points in 6 minutes to tie it up, 56-56, after a three-pointer by Massinburg. The visitors could not complete the rally, as Christen and Sagaba Konate helped Ulm enter the last stanza still ahead, 65-62. Christen hit from downtown to extend it to 68-62, but Brescia had already found its momentum. It came down to the closing seconds. After Mobley's three made it 82-79 with 16 seconds to go, but Thomas Klepeisz failed to finish the job from the line and Kenny Gabriel sent the game to overtime with a dunk.

Brescia stayed in good mood early in the extra period. Della Valle showed up with a fastbreak layup and a three-pointer to boost his team to an 85-92 lead. Ulm looked tired and stunned and was not able to score a field goal for the first 4 minutes of the prolongation. Mobley broke the trend with a triple, but Cobbins answered quickly with a slam that maintained an 88-96 gap with 40 seconds to play, sealing the outcome.

Brescia edges Ulm in overtime, 90-98

### Germani Brescia head coach Alessandro Magro:

“It was a tough game for us. I think we struggled a lot in the beginning, especially in the first half, allowing a lot of weird situations. They were good at attacking our defense and that’s why we decided to change in the second half and go to a switching defense, and I think that choice paid off. Then we were able to build good shots and even but our percentages didn’t support us, and that’s we were on the chase for most part of the game. We were able anyway to keep fighting, keep believing, and somehow, we arrived at overtime and I think we were really more boosted than them.  I’m sorry if I spend a few seconds more, but I would like to dedicate this game to my mom, who is fighting a very tough fight, much more than basketball so don’t give up mom.”

### ratiopharm Ulm head coach Anton Gavel:

“First of all, I want to congratulate Alessandro and his team for the win. I think we presented ourselves in the last games always better, but we allowed 21 offensive rebounds and that gave them so many second chances. Defensively we collapsed a couple of times, we were miscommunicated, and allowed easy buckets for the Brescia team. Offensively we couldn’t find always the right decisions against the switch. It caused definitely that we urged three-point shooting; we were looking for a solution in three-point shooting, and we could have found definitely other different solutions. It is a tough loss, we have another game in three days. We have to recover from this and keep fighting and believing. I wish all the best to Alessandro’s mom. There are more important things than basketball.”

### Germani Brescia guard Troy Caupain:

"We knew it was going to be tough, it was a road game. We had a long ride here and we needed to show what we have. This is another step in our journey. Ulm played well, they got their shots, they played physical, but we pulled it out, stayed together and got the win down the stretch. We got another opportunity, we forced overtime, and stayed together, fighting through, coming up with loose balls down the stretch on the defensive end.”

Caupain: 'This is another step in our journey'

### Joventut Badalona head coach Carles Duran: 

"Congratulations to the team. I think they worked very well. I think the key was the second and third quarters because the team defended very well, in all situations. For example, they defended Yogi Ferrell and Josh Adams well in the pick-and-roll. And also we played well on offense - not just with dribbling but we moved the ball and tried to play not only the three-point line but also combine with the low post. I am happy because when you play on the road it’s difficult to play."

### Cedvita Olimpija Ljubljana head coach Jurica Golemac: 

"Congratulations to Joventut, they deserved to win the game.  We are not good enough at the moment to try to play against Joventut. They were much faster, much more physical. The ball moved better. We are just at this moment too slow and too soft for this kind of basketball."

Coach Duran: 'We defended very well in all situations'

Joventut Badalona bounced back from its first loss of the season to gain a big road victory over Cedevita Olimpija Ljubljana. Joventut took control in the second quarter and never let Cedevita back into the game for a 78-100 win to improve to 2-1 while the hosts remained winless at 0-3.

Henry Ellenson paced Joventut with 15 points while Ante Tomic scored 14 and Kyle Guy added 12 points. Yogi Ferrell scored 20 points and Josh Adams contributed 15 in the losing effort.

The first quarter was tight throughout with 5 points being the biggest lead and Joventut up 26-28 after 10 minutes. The visitors led 26-34 early in the second frame and put together a 0-11 run for a 35-48 cushion, which was 41-50 at the break. Six straight points to start the second half pushed the lead to 15 points and Joventut led by as many as 19 in the third quarter. Cedevita, which trailed 57-73 after 30 minutes, could not get closer than 11 points the rest of the way.

### Frederic Fauthoux, Mincidelice JL Bourg en Bresse head coach

"Lietkabelis is a tough team. In the second half, we played very well but we missed open shots. If we had scored, it would have been easier. But I am very happy we won this game... The last quarter we played with great intensity. Beginning of the game we let them play too easy with a great passing game. Afterward, we became tougher and it was better."

### Nenad Canak, 7Bet-Lietkabelis Paneveyzs head coach:

"We stopped playing defense the last quarter. We could not stop Floy one-on-one. Too many times they scored two-plus-one. It also talks about our intensity on defense in those moments. If you want to win the game away, you must play defense for 40 minutes. Today, in the last quarter, it was terrible. From that, we lost control of our offense. We lost the game. In the first three quarters, we had good moments, but also had mistakes. We have to analyze that and get better and stronger."

### Jordan Floyd, Mincidelice JL Bourg en Bresse guard:

"Lietkabelis is a tough team and we knew they will come out here and play hard. But we knew if we locked in on the defensive end, we would come out with a victory. I just know that at the end of the day, my teammates will come to me when it matters. I had to make sure I stay consistent and perform for them."
