Bourg-en-Bresse defeated Venice (86-79) on Tuesday as part of the 11th day of the Eurocup, in this shock at the top of the table, between the first and the second in group A.
After three close first quarters, the French had a 15-point lead halfway through the fourth but they got scared in the dying minutes when the Italians fell to 5 points. More fear than harm before recording a second victory in a row in Europe.
Jordan Floyd (24 points at 8/9 shooting) and Derek Willis (23 points at 5/8) allowed their team to retain their place as group leader. For Venice, this defeat is expensive since the team drops to fifth place.
