Regular Season Round 14: Illiabum - Benfica 69-96

Date: February 7, 2015
LPB top team - Benfica (13-1) had no problems winning another game. This time they crushed tenth ranked Illiabum (4-10) in Ilhavo 96-69. The game was mostly controlled by Benfica. Illiabum was better in fourth quarter 17-13. But it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. Benfica players were unselfish on offense dishing 23 assists. American guard Jobey Thomas (194-80, college: Charlotte) notched 33 points (!!!) (was perfect 7-for-7 from the free throw line) to lead the effort and the former international point guard Tomas Barroso (184-90, agency: Dynamics Global Management) supported him with 9 points and 12 assists. Even a double-double of 10 points and 13 rebounds by American forward Stephen Nwaukoni (203-91, college: Hofstra) did not help to save the game for Illiabum. Serbian swingman Bogdan Riznic (202-90) added 16 points and 8 rebounds for the hosts. Five Illiabum players scored in double figures. The winner was already known earlier in the game, so both coaches allowed to play the bench players saving starting five for next games. Benfica have an impressive 13-game winning streak. Defending champion maintains first position with 13-1 record. Illiabum lost third consecutive game. Newly promoted team dropped to the ninth place with ten games lost. They share the position with 3 other teams. Benfica will play against CAB Madeira (#4) in Funchal in the next round. Illiabum will play on the road against Alges (#7) and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
