Regular Season Round 21: Metz - Besancon 66-76
Date: January 23, 2026
We cannot really consider it an upset in the game between close teams when 13th rankedMetz (5-17) lost at home to fourteenth ranked Besancon (5-16) 76-66 on Friday. Besancon made 24-of-31 free shots (77.4 percent) during the game. Hugo Cluysen (203-1998, college: NAIT) nailed 19 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists for the winning side and Lithuanian Augustinas Venckus (190-1997) accounted for 16 points and 5 assists. Florian Fortas (191-2000) came up with a double-double by scoring 19 points, 11 rebounds and 4 assists and guard Melvin Beaubois (193-2001) added 14 points respectively for Metz in the defeat. Besancon moved-up to eleventh place, which they share with Charleville and Pays Salonais. Loser Metz dropped to the fourteenth position with 17 games lost. Besancon will meet at home higher ranked Saint Vallier (#8) in the next round and it will be quite challenging to get another victory. Metz will play against Boulogne (#7) in Boulogne-sur-Mer and hope to secure a win.
