Boulazac took the lead and dominated Orléans
No doubt that Boulazac Basket Dordogne has entered playoff mode. We were worried after the three defeats in a row. But Boulazac silences the critics by stringing together 3 successes, against Saint-Chamond, but especially against Vichy, on the 2nd and this Saturday 4th May 2024 in Orléans, the 4th BBD will have succeeded in their matches against the teams at the top of the table this season, victories against La Rochelle, against Rouen, against Vichy and their two victories, both in the first leg and on the return against Orléans. The locals chased the score all game and only led once, 11-10 in the first quarter. A first act lost by Orléans 14-20. It is Angelo Warner who opens the counter and the scoreboard. he will score 15 points, a total of 3 winning baskets from the 3 attempts and 2 assists.

Boulazac confirms his dominance in the second half
Although Orléans won the third quarter 22-21, he would never be able to worry Boulazac. Périgords recited their scores and increased the quality of play and could rely on a well-oiled collective game. Whereas Orléans only focused on their individualities, without offering real team play. Let’s also note the good performances of Jean-Marc Pansa with 16 points, 4 offensive rebounds and 7 defensive rebounds, but also 2 assists. He will get a rating of +22. Youri Golitin recovered well from his average performance against Vichy by scoring 17 points and Vincent Amsellem has been very consistent in his performances in recent games, with 18 points. Boulazac will go to Antibes with certainty of retaining his 3rd place. He will know his quarter-final opponent next Friday after all the results from the 34th day.
