Wrapping up Round 6 of France’s Betclic Elite Regular Season, AS Monaco made short work of Limoges CSP on the way to a 94-77 victory in Palais des Sports de Beaublanc.
Mike James and Daniel Theis sat out, but Yoan Makoundou returned to action with 16 points, including several highlight dunks in his first official appearance in the 2025-26 season. The 25-year-old center was sidelined with a shoulder injury in late September.
Building on a perfect double-game week in the EuroLeague, La Roca Team picked up a fourth consecutive win across all competitions on Sunday. Improving the domestic tally to 5-1 shaped a tie with Le Mans at the top of the LNB standings.
Earlier in Le Palio, Nadir Hifi went for 18 points and Paris routed Boulazac, 94-73, to jump to 4-2. Recent signing Jared Rhoden was unavailable for head coach Francesco Tabellini, with Allan Dokossi, Daulton Hommes, and Lamar Stevens sidelined as well.
Fellow EuroLeague outfit, LDLC ASVEL Villeurbanne, fell to Elan Chalon, 86-85, with Jeremiah Hill beating the buzzer to seal a win for the visitors in Astroballe on Saturday.
