Despite the absence of his American fullback CJ Harris, positive for Covid, Bourg-en-Bresse won at home this Wednesday against Ljubljana (76-69) during a meeting of group B of the Eurocup, a week after his victory in Venice (81-78).
Thanks to a second quarter dominated 17-5, the Bressans, more collective, led at the break 37 to 25 and held on until the end despite the awakening of the Slovenians Blazic and Dragic in the third quarter (45-43). Led at the end of the game by JaCorey Williams, Axel Julien and Rasheed Sulaimon, effective at three points, JL Bourg won their third consecutive victory this season before returning to the French Championship (in Dijon, Saturday).
