It was a tough game for Monaco in Dijon, but Spanoulis’s team got the win (86-99) and is now 8-2 in the LNB Èlite.
Nikola Mirotic (14), Elie Okobo (14), and Alpha Diallo (14) led the team in scoring. In Dijon, Slovenian guard Gregor Hrovat (19) had a great game. Cory Joseph did not play. His debut with Spanoulis’s team will have to wait.
Elie Okobo, the Euroleague Round 14 MVP, led alongside Alpha Diallo a brilliant first half for Monaco (33-45) in Dijon.
