Forlì overcame its slow start by finding rhythm from beyond the arc. The biancorossi established a 50 percent conversion rate on three-pointers by halftime, orchestrating a 22-point scoring burst over a six-minute span in the opening quarter. That offensive flurry propelled the hosts to a 31-18 advantage by the end of the first period, a gap they extended to 39-20 following contributions from Tyrus Santos Silva and Matteo Berdini.
Woodson anchored the Cento offense, while Davis contributed 18 points on the night as the visitors attempted to chip away at the deficit. A late 8-0 run before the intermission narrowed Forlì’s lead to 47-37 at the break.

As the final quarter unfolded, Woodson and Davis combined to cap a furious rally, shrinking Forlì’s lead to a single point at 69-68 with half of the period remaining. Guard Tommaso Pinza and veteran Davide Pascolo provided defensive stability and key baskets during the third quarter to fend off Cento’s persistent pressure.
When the visitors pulled within one point, Perkovic disrupted a Cento possession to ignite a decisive response from Ceccato. The young guard scored nine consecutive points, restoring Forlì’s advantage to double digits at 78-68 and securing the two league points as the final buzzer sounded on an 80-73 scoreline.
