Limoges Mounts Stunning Comeback Against Boulazac
Limoges orchestrated a stunning turnaround to secure an 80-72 victory over Boulazac at the Palais des Sports de Beaublanc. Trailing by seven points at halftime (30-37), the home side unleashed a decisive 32-10 run in the third quarter, establishing a commanding 15-point lead (62-47) entering the final period. This surge, powered by Limoges' 44% shooting from the field (29/66) and a dominant 42-33 rebounding advantage, was significantly boosted by their bench, which contributed 36 points. Reserve guard Vincent Amsellem was instrumental with 12 points and 6 assists, complemented by Justin Lewis' 15 points and 7 rebounds. Despite strong performances from Boulazac's Essome Miyem, who posted 18 points and 9 rebounds, and Angelo Warner's 13 points, they couldn't stem the tide. This loss proves costly for Boulazac in the Leaders Cup standings, as Limoges now matches their 5-10 record, improving their playoff positioning.
