The Gialloblù make them the match against a well known team, with different interpreters, including Jazz Ferguson, Andrea Amato, Mitch Poletti and the same coach Gandini.

At the end of the third quarter Verona is on plus 12; in the last quarter Nardò plays it with pride but Verona controls and closes on the definitive 81 to 68.
Verona thus makes its own a race conducted practically from the beginning; 8 players scored during the match, 4 in double figures (Johnson 15, Candussi 14, Caroti 11, Anderson 10) and the double-double signed by Xavier Johnson (15 points, 11 rebounds).
