Thanks to its productive offense, Monaco (17-2) took the road victory over Antibes (6-13) to preserve a solid distance from second Chalon/Saone and Pau Orthez.
Coach Bartecheky’s team didn’t need an impressive performance and its tight defense was enough to overcome Orleans (6-13) while Chalon/Saone faced few problems against Cholet (6-13) at home. Both teams have the same record, 14 – 5 with Nanterre being one win behind.
In a rematch of the 2014/2015 Finals series, Limoges (9-10) rained down three-pointers (14/26) to beat Strasbourg (10-9), a crucial result for the playoffs race.
