The winning march of Bertram Yachts Derthona continues, which - acting as a great team, after a quiet start - takes over the reins of the derby with Biella, resisting every opponent's comeback attempt with clarity and coolness. The dispute was resolved by the baskets of Captain Tavernelli (17p), his best scoring performance of the season, in addition to those of the usual Cannon (17p) and Mascolo (21p).
Energy impact from the hosts at the start of the Piedmontese derby: Derthona struggled a bit to get going and after 5' the score was 11-5. In the following minutes the defensive intensity of the Lions increased and they found their first advantage with Sanders' triple at the siren (15-18). The Juventus push continues in the second quarter, fueled by Fabi and captain Tavernelli: the first half then ends with a four-point game from Severini (37-46). Bertram's sprint start upon returning from the locker room: three triples in a row update the maximum gap in the match (37-55); the opponent's reaction was not long in coming and brought Biella to 57-69 at the end of the third quarter. In the final period, Edilnol returns to the game with a series of three-point baskets, but it is Tavernelli who takes the lead and closes the contest at the HypeForum: at the siren the final is 83-95.
