The TGB won at the end of the suspense against a valiant team from Chartres supported by a wild public who believed until the end in the second victory of the season after Charleville-Mézières (80-72). Chartres, thanks to an aggressive defense and a lively attack with 52% success and 10/18 at 3 points (55%), was always in the match. The Chartraines even led 17-15 (8th), 46-42 (21th), 70-69 (36th) et 75-73 (38th) and they could have won over the siren, if they had better negotiated their last ball on interception. The Tarbaises also relied on an outstanding skill (60%) with 8/14 at 3 points (57%). Musa Murjanatu (21 points, 8 rebounds), Ajsa Sivka (15 points, 5/7 from 3 points), Jesse-Mine Zodia (10 points, 5 rebounds) carried the TGB with Endy Miyem (16 points) who broke his record points since his return from injury. A TGB which could have paid dearly for its clumsiness with free throws with twelve points left en route (15/27) against 5 points in Chartres (13/18). Still recovering, Camille Droguet was a shadow of herself on free throws 3/12 and shooting 0/5 but she played an important role in the game and it was she who offered the victory with her last two successful free throws in a hostile room. Quite a character after four failures two minutes before. Chartres came very close to its second victory with four doubles, including a fiery Marine Debaut (22 points, 5/6 at 3 points), well supported by Nicole Enabosi (15 points), Frida Eldebrink (15 points, 3/5 3 points) and Stella Colas (10 points). The Promoted, despite his last place, plays in front of a large audience and the wheel of luck should turn in 2025. This is the fifth defeat by less than 3 points after those against Charleville-Mézières (70-73), Roche -Vendée (72-74), Montpellier (67-68) and Landerneau (76-73).
