Olimpia returns from Bormio’s training camp after another win, a convincing one, 79-69, over a very competitive Galatasaray team, showing a lot of progress defensively and rebounding the ball after struggling a little bit in the previous game against Tofas. Olimpia led most of the game, built a consistent margin in the second half and was good attacking the zone too. Andrew Goudelock and Amath M’Baye combined for 36 points. The french gunman was perfect from the arc, 5 for 5. Jordan Theodore did a great job driving into the lane and Cory Jefferson was very active especially in the first half showing an array of different ways to score.
