Regular Season Round 21: Avellino - Pistoia 99-94

Date: January 11, 2026
Everything went according to plan when tenth ranked Avellino (12-9) beat at home 18th ranked Pistoia (6-15) 99-94 on Sunday. However just five-point win is not that big difference and the fans of host team counted on more convincing victory. Avellino made 16-of-18 free shots (88.9 percent) during the game. They looked well-organized offensively handing out 26 assists. The best player for the winners was American guard Jay Jay Chandler III (193-1998, college: USA) who scored 27 points and 6 assists. Guard Federico Mussini (188-1996, college: St.John's) chipped in 24 points and 6 assists. At the other side the best for losing team was Croatian power forward Ivan Buva (207-1991) who recorded a double-double by scoring 32 points and 11 rebounds and the former international forward Simone Zanotti (208-1992) added 11 points and 11 rebounds respectively. Four Avellino and five Pistoia players scored in double figures. Pistoia's coach Stefano Sacripanti rotated ten players in this game, but that didn't help. Avellino moved-up to eighth place, which they share with Rieti and Fortitudo. Pistoia lost their sixth game in a row. They keep the eighteenth position with 15 games lost. They share it with Puglia. Avellino will meet Torino (#11) on the road in the next round. Pistoia will play against Verona (#4) and hope to secure a win.
