What a finish! Led by eleven points (69-80) two minutes and thirty seconds from the end of regulation time, the JDA Dijon first forced the extension (83-83) before executing Roanne in his room in the last moments of the extra period (100-96) on Saturday during the 21st day of Betclic Elite.
Rashard Kelly (15 points, 9 rebounds) had finalized the Burgundian comeback at the end of the fourth quarter. Roanne regained control in overtime but fullback Khadeen Carrington (28 points) scored two award-winning baskets in the last minute to move ahead (98-95) and ensure a somewhat crazy success that owes a lot to the 18 offensive rebounds of the Dijonnais. They won a third success in a row and consolidated their place in the top 6, before the trip from Strasbourg on Saturday evening to Limoges and the reception of Le Mans on Monday in a late match of the 15th day.
