The game between closely ranked teams ended with Metz's (1-1) road victory over Avignon/Pontet (0-3) 92-81 on Friday. Metz looked well-organized offensively handing out 24 assists. It was an exceptional evening for BGRn-American guard Michael Nwabuzor (188-1996, college: NMHU) who led the winners and scored 26 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists (went 8 for 8 at the free throw line). American forward Amir Smith (200-1997, college: Hampton) accounted for 16 points and 11 rebounds (on 7-of-9 shooting from the field) for the winning side. Nwabuzor is a former Eurobasket Summer League player, which is considered top international summer league in the market. Nelson Cece (200-2002) came up with a double-double by scoring 19 points and 11 rebounds and DR Congolese-Belgian power forward Ruphin Kayembe (200-1992) added 17 points and 6 rebounds respectively for Avignon/Pontet in the defeat. Five Metz and four Avignon/Pontet players scored in double figures. Metz will meet at home Boulogne (#3) in the next round and it will be quite challenging to get another victory. Avignon/Pontet will play against Mulhouse (#10) and hopes to get finally their first victory.
