Reyer Venezia blew out Cremona 108-76, at home and lead the series 2-0. Since the start, the home team had control of the game and with a 24-12 first-period score it sure looked like Peric and Venezia wanted to take care of business.

Cremona tried to challenge the hosts in the second quarter, but in the second half, Venezia was on another level. The hosts scored 108 points while shooting 61.9% from the field. Hrvoje Perić led the way with 19 points, while six players from Venezia finished in double-figures.

In the other quarterfinal, Sidigas Avellino responded perfectly in Game 2 and with an easy 80-59 win against Trentino and evened the series 1-1. Avellino’s defense was on point, as Trento scored 59 points and shot a poor 36.1% from the field. For the winners, Kyrylo Fesenko put up a double-double of 20 points and 10 rebounds.
