Chalon snatch OT win at Strasbourg
In a nail-biting contest at the Rhénus Sport, Chalon/Saône snatched an overtime victory over Strasbourg, edging them out 91-90 to solidify their Leaders Cup playoff standing. Strasbourg held a slim two-point lead at halftime (46-44) and entered the fourth quarter ahead by one (66-65), but Chalon mounted a late surge to force overtime and secure the win. Despite shooting just 38% from the field (30/80) and struggling from deep (7/27 3P), Chalon's rebounding advantage (53-46) and superior free-throw shooting (75% vs 69%) proved decisive. Jeremiah Hill was instrumental with 19 points and 9 rebounds, complemented by double-doubles from Grant Golden (13 rebounds) and Justyn Mutts (11 rebounds). Strasbourg's bench offered a spark, notably Mike Davis Jr. with 18 points, while Abdoulaye Ndoye dished out 7 assists. This loss is a significant blow for Strasbourg, allowing Chalon to climb the standings and intensifying the playoff race.
