Asvel opens its counter in the Euroleague against Virtus Bologna and Isaïa Cordinier

Cordier, record in vain

But the absence of the American-Cameroonian leader was not felt during a dream first quarter: 38 points, a perfect 7 out of 7 from three points, slick play and an Italian defense at bay (38-27 , 10th). Opposite, only Cordinier, now one of the leaders of the Virtus after his magical Olympic summer, was sticking his head above water. Like last season, the Blues guard broke his Euroleague points record at the Astroballe (23 points with 5 rebounds and 6 assists).
