Fabien Causeur: 'We found the right solutions'
Milan’s offense could not get going at all early, with just two free throws in the first 4 minutes, while four different ASVEL scorers had baskets in a 2-8 lead before Mirotic scored the hosts' first basket. Milan buried two triples and cut the gap to 10-12, only to see Maledon convert a three-point play and Melvin Ajinca hit a three-pointer to make it 12-18. Two LeDay baskets knotted the game 18-18 and ASVEL was up 18-20 after the first quarter.
Lauvergne took over in the second quarter with two lefty hooks, a floater and three-pointer to help ASVEL jump ahead 24-29. Milan would not let the guests get away, twice making it a one-point game before finally taking its first lead on two Causeur free throws for 34-33. LeDay added a three-pointer as Milan was up 37-33. And Milan led 41-36 at the break.
A Causeur three-pointer increased the margin to 8 points at 46-38. ASVEL scored 3 points on three consecutive possessions to stick close and Maledon made it 53-51. Two Milan veterans made milestone baskets, with Causeur hitting 2,500 points and Shavon Shields reaching 2,000 points for a 58-51 lead. ASVEL punched back with a 0-8 run to reclaim the lead 58-59. Brooks answered with a three-pointer and Milan was up 63-61 after 30 minutes.
Brooks scored 4 more points as Milan opened the gap to 69-61 while ASVEL needed almost 3 minutes to score. Mirotic added a triple and Milan increased the advantage to double figures, 74-64, with under 7 minutes to play. After the cushion swelled to 11 points, ASVEL was not ready to hand over the game, especially Maledon, who scored 9 points to make it 85-82 with 89 seconds left. But Mannion drained a high-arching fadeaway baseline jumper as the dagger answer with 37 seconds to go.
