After leading essentially for the whole game, Olimpia found itself down by three points in the middle of the fourth quarter and the ghosts of many late losses could have appeared in the Unipol Forum. “This time we have been good at keeping play our game, we attacked the switches with Armoni Brooks and that paid off handsomely,” Coach Peppe Poeta said at the end of his team win 80-76 over the hottest team in the league. Reggiana had won the last six games and eight of the last nine entering this contest. Brooks scored 12 points in the fourth quarter alone. He made the three to tied up the score, the one that restored Olimpia’s lead for good, made the three-point play (off a runner) to extend the lead to four points and again made the three that gave Olimpia a five-point margin late in the game. After Jaylen barford made a corner three to shrink the deficit to two points, Olimpia closed the game off with a nice defensive possession that resulted in a steal. Pippo Ricci made the ensuing free throws to finish the game on a high note. While Brooks led the scorers with 22 points, Ricci added 14 most of the timely.
