Alessandro Gentile with a soft touch keeps the ball alive. Then Daniel Hackett finds him in the corner. And he swishes a terrific three. It’s the best play of a huge night. Alessandro Gentile led Olimpia with 29 points, his career-best. It was the third “over 20” game in the last four Euroleague outing. The fourth game was a 19-point game against Fenerbahce. Now Gentile is averaging 23.7 points per game in the last four on the road to the much deserved Rising Star Trophy. His 29 points are the most he ever had as a pro, tying his previous best obtained last year in the Italian League, in Montegranaro.
