Coming back from a ten-point deficit in the second half, Bertram Derthona Tortona enjoys the win, 78-74, against UCAM Murcia on Wednesday.

Retin Obasohan fueled the brilliant introduction to the Basketball Champions League for the Italian outfit. The Belgian guard, a veteran of 45 appearances in FIBA Europe’s top-tier club continental competition, logged 10 of his 15 points in the second half of the Gameday 1 contest of the Regular Season.

Chris Dowe paired his game-high 16 points with seven rebounds, three assists, and one steal. Kyle Weems threw in 12 more points. The team coached by Marco Ramondino jumped to 1-0 in Group H, forcing Sito Alonso’s side to 0-1.

In a tough break for the Universitarios, they led for nearly 30 minutes in PalaFerraris but could not hold on down the stretch. Troy Caupain and Dylan Ennis shared a team-high 14 points. Nemanja Radovic followed with 12 points.
