Regular Season Round 8: ALBA - Le Mans 80-86

Date: December 2, 2015
There was a minor upset when one of their biggest challengers German ALBA Berlin (4-4) was defeated at home by fifth ranked French Le Mans (3-5) 86-80 on Wednesday. The guests took control from the first minutes by winning first half. But ALBA Berlin won fourth quarter 29-25. However it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. Le Mans made 31-of-40 free shots (77.5 percent) during the game. It was a great shooting night for Le Mans especially from behind the arc, where they had solid 55.0 percentage. ALBA Berlin was plagued by 31 personal fouls down the stretch. The best player for the winners was American point guard Tywain McKee (188-86, college: Coppin St.) who scored 25 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists. Beninese power forward Mouphtaou Yarou (204-90, college: Villanova) chipped in 12 points and 8 rebounds. American point guard Will Cherry (185-91, college: Montana) produced 18 points and 7 rebounds and Bosnian center Elmedin Kikanovic (211-88, agency: Beo Basket) added 24 points (on 10-of-12 shooting from the field) respectively for the hosts. ALBA Berlin's coach rotated ten players in this game, but that didn't help. Le Mans maintains fifth position in Group B with 3-5 record. ALBA Berlin lost third consecutive game. They dropped to the fourth place with four games lost. Le Mans will face league's second-placed Grissin Bon RE in Reggio Emilia in the next round and it may be quite challenging game. ALBA Berlin will play on the road against the league's leader G.Canaria 2014 in Las Palmas and hope to win that game.
