Dijon in demonstration, Cholet and Strasbourg solid, Pau relegated
This Saturday, JDA Dijon largely won against Nanterre, BCM Gravelines-Dunkerque beat JL Bourg. Blois, Élan Béarnais and Le Mans themselves lost to Cholet, Roanne and Strasbourg.
In the five Betclic ELITE games of the evening, there was meaning. Apart from the meeting in Nanterre. The JDA Dijon has largely won (68-88). Carried by an excellent David Holston, the Burgundians delivered a real offensive recital this Saturday. For its part, BCM Gravelines-Dunkerque dominated JL Bourg (73-69). Strasbourg bent Le Mans (92-89). At the same time, ADA Blois fell on the Cholet floor (86-82) and Élan Béarnais again lost at home to the Chorale de Roanne (77-85).
David Holston as patron
JDA Dijon quickly took control in this match against a struggling Nantes team. Under the impetus of a very inspired David Holston (19 points, 3 rebounds and 7 assists), Nenad Markovic’s men were 20 points ahead at the break (37-57). A lead that the Burgundians kept after the break. Pascal Donnadieu’s men failed to follow up with their fine victory in Limoges and lost heavily at home (68-88).
Gravelines-Dunkirk, Le Mans and Cholet strong
For its part, BCM Gravelines-Dunkerque resisted the return of JL Bourg (73-69). In a very high intensity match, Laurent Legname’s players held their own against a very sticky Burgan team. Serious and applied, the Maritimes were scared but ended up winning, thus recovering after their heavy defeat in Nancy.
Jostled for 40 minutes by a team from Blois who bravely played their luck, Cholet won in the last moments of the match against Blois (86-82). Boris Dallo (17 points and 8 rebounds) was particularly illustrated. CB remains in the top 3 of the championship, behind Monaco and the Metropolitans 92. For its part, the ADA seems to have recovered after its victory against Élan Béarnais.
Le Mans and Élan Béarnais relapse
A team from the Élan Béarnais which has lost news. After a bad start, Eric Bartecheky’s team believed in it for a long time thanks in particular to an excellent Garrett Sim (23 points). But as often this season, the Béarnais ended up giving in at the end of the game. Yannis Morin (15 points and 6 rebounds) and his teammates from the Chorale de Roanne failed another defeat to Pau who finds himself 17th and relegated this Saturday evening.
After a series of victories, Le Mans was stopped in Alsace. Badly handled, the Sarthe team gradually made up for its delay but in the end, it was SIG Strasbourg that had the last word. Strong mentally and effective offensively like Marcus Keene (25 points and 3 assists), Luca Banchi’s players showed character to resist the return of Manceaux and win (92-89). They are bouncing back after their heavy setback in Paris.
