Parra's backdoor slam! Motorola Magic Moment
An exchange of blows in the opening stages saw ASVEL take a 7-5 lead following a three-point play from Maledon. Kevin Punter responded with a trademark mid-range jumper and Parker drilled a corner triple to tie it up at 10-10. Maledon nailed a three on the other end, but a Punter bucket and five straight points from Brizuela put Barcelona ahead, 15-17. Yet, five points by Black were followed by a triple from De Colo to give ASVEL a 23-21 edge after 10 minutes.
Metu scored inside to open the second quarter but David Lighty connected from downtown to maintain a 28-25 lead. Buckets from Maledon and Neal Sako sandwiched a triple by Lee, with ASVEL opening a 37-28 lead. But Willy Hernangomez and Punter netted inside before a triple from Joel Parra cut the deficit to 39-35. Maledon ended Barcelona’s 0-7 run with a three before Joffrey Lauvergne’s first score of the night gave ASVEL a 44-38 cushion. Parker drained one from deep on the other end, but Lauvergne netted inside off a smart Maledon dish to restore a 48-42 lead at halftime.
Tomas Satoransky responded to a Lighty triple with a three-point play, but Sako posterized Jan Vesely before Lee and Roberson netted one each from downtown to make it 60-47. Alex Abrines and Roberson traded buckets off the glass before the latter landed another three that stretched the lead to 65-51 midway through the third quarter. Barcelona answered with a 0-7 run fueled by Metu, who took his tally to 11 points. But De Colo nailed a triple, with Lauvergne and Black netting in the paint to restore a 74-63 cushion. Then, Black and Metu exchanged scores inside, with ASVEL taking a 76-79 lead into the closing quarter.
The game turned into a back-and-forth affair, as Black and Lee got ASVEL going in the fourth with back-to-back buckets, but baskets from Anderson and Vesely brought Barcelona within 80-77. Punter netted a floater and Parker nailed one from beyond the arc to make it 84-82. Then, Parker hit another one, but Roberson responded with a three-point play for an 89-85 cushion. Satoransky and Roberson traded baskets, but Punter scored 5 straight points to make it 93-92. Vesely tied it from the line, but Lee drained one from deep for an 86-93 lead. A turnover from Brizuela on one end was followed by a couple of free throws made by De Colo on the other to seal the outcome.
