Legabasket: Sassari is stoic but Datome punishes her, the report cards

Very tense challenge at the Forum where Olimpia Milano surpasses 80-75 a tricky Dinamo Sassari.
Tense match from the start with Sassari very physical pressing and Olimpia Milano clearly taken by surprise.
Bendzius opens everything from the arc while the game gets nervous, thanks to a strange referee meter. Datome pushes his players and Sassari pays for the too strong reactions of his players, which cost some technicians.
Voigtmann finds the draw but Stephens and Bendzius keep everything open but it is once again Datome who pushes the red and whites with his shots.
However, Jones keeps Sassari in contact from the arc and the many mistakes from Olimpia’s free throws cost dearly in the final which risks throwing everything away, but a series of mistakes by the Sassari defense give Napier the +4 followed by Baron’s free throws to seal victory

OLYMPIA MILAN

Pango 4: disastrous from the first minute for turnovers and choices. Will Hall be back?

Tonut SV: Invisible

Melli 6: big voice under the scoreboards but the free ones risk costing the game

Baron 7: glacial when it counts, even if it’s harder than usual.

Napier 6,5: archery today is a problem, but always leaves the feeling of being in control

Ricci 5: little space but also little impact. A couple of nonsense behind

Baldasso NE

Shields 7: from the outside a lot of effort but creates for the others and scores in the approach.

Alvita NO

Hines 6,5: the defense commands behind but is in a bit of physical difficulty

Datome 8: vintage gigione decisive in all aspects of the game. It moves Olimpia in moments of difficulty and loads the 10 thousand of the forum

Voigtmann 6,5: a few triples from his but also a few too many rebounding carelessness

DYNAMO SASSARI

Jones 6: a triple from him risks reopening everything in the end. Always fight

Robinson 5: defensively too easy to hit

Deaf 7.5: sublime game made of assist points and rebounds. All around

Kruslin 5: a triple then goes off immediately

Devecchi NE

Trailer 5.5: wakes up too late

Chessa NE

Stephens 6,5: lots of athleticism and even some poster play

Bendzius 8: unstoppable from the arc right out of the box. Impossible to contain it

Gentile 5: too nervous, he takes an avoidable coach and his game suffers

Raspino 5: it never affects

Diop 6,5: he fights a lot under the basket, a lot of energy maybe even too much but it makes you understand why everyone talks about his potential
