Dirty weekend for the clubs engaged in the Euroleague: like Asvel the day before, Monaco fell in Elite, beaten Sunday by Limoges (84-80) during the 9th day, its second defeat in a row at home in the league.
The Roca Team (seven wins for two losses), already dominated by Dijon (95-84) at Gaston-Médecin during the previous day, leaves the controls to Cholet (7/1) victorious Friday at Blois (79-74) for the sixth time in a row.
After her painful victory on Friday against Vitoria (79-74), she gave in to Bryce Jones and his teammates.
The American leader (19 pts at 2/3 three-point, 6 assists) scored the decisive basket 10 seconds 3/10th from the siren (82-80), while Monaco had come back six lengths down (80 -74 for the CSP with 1 min 15 sec to play).
The Monegasques then had possession to snatch victory or extra time, entrusted to Mike James, who had only attempted one shot (missed) since the start of the match. The American leader saw his attempt behind the arc bounce off the hoop.
In the first match of the day, Paris signed in Roanne (115-110) a second victory in a row away from home which allows them to distance themselves at the bottom of the table with the teams with two successes.
The Parisians (three wins) were able to count on a spread mark, with six players having scored 12 points or more.
