The sixth victory in the European Cup was achieved by Cedevita Olimpija’s team (6-3) from Ljubljana.
Man of the match
Famous Rimaco alumni at home 91:70 (19:21, 30:17, 20:16, 22:16) crushed the basketball players Promitheas (2-6) from Patras.
Although the Greek team lost all theoretical chances of advancing to the next round of the European Cup with this loss, Friday’s match was historic for one of Promitheas’ basketball players, Vangelis Mantzaris.
The 196 cm defender in the duel against the Slovenian national team scored 12 points in 40 minutes (1/1 double, 3/6 trit., 1/2 penalty), bounced 10 balls, made 10 assists, scored 25 utility points and scored the first triple-double in the European Cup since 2015.
It was the ninth triple-double in championship history and Mantzar became the eighth different player to achieve that achievement.
The last double-digit number in the three statistical charts was recorded by Quino Colomas on December 9, 2015, who scored 15 points, 11 rebounds and 13 assists in defense of Kazan UNIKS, and the Russian club broke Podgorica’s Buduchnnost at home 81 : 77.
The only player in the history of the European Cup who has up to 2 triple-doubles on his account is Donta Smith.
Todor Stoykov, Meir Tapuro, Elvir Ovchina, Pascal Perrier-Davis and Courtney Fortson have tripled once in the European Cup.
