PRO A – 6th Day : A.S. Monaco Basket vs BCM Gravelines – Dunkerque

The Roca Team is continuing its quest for invincibility!

Tomorrow, at 7 p.m. in the Gaston Médecin Hall, the reds and whites will play a home match against Gravelines-Dunkerque, Jordan Aboudou's former club.

BCM Gravelines – Dunkerque, who are ranked 13th in the regular season, are, however, aiming for the top of the league table. The team from Northern France has been strengthened by the recruitment, in particular, of former French international player Florent Pietrus.

Aaron Cel is also among Gravelines' key recruits.  This Polish power forward, who was transferred to the North this year, will also be playing against his former teammates.

Gravelines, who were victorious in Nancy on the final day (65 to 70), can also count on their winger Richard Solomon.  To date, the American player is the best rebounder in Pro A, with an average of 10.3 rebounds per match.

Following a difficult victory in the Champions League against the Slovenian team Helios Suns, 59 to 55, the Roca Team's players are uncertain about the home match with Gravelines.

This is particularly the case for Dee Bost, Jamal Shuler and Zack Wright - Zack Wright dominated the last match with 11 points, 6 passes, 4 interceptions and 7 rebounds, but left before the end of the game on Wednesday evening.

However, Nik Caner-Medley, Yakuba Ouattara and Sergii Gladyr, who made it possible to snatch the victory at Le Mans on the 5th day (81 to 83), will be playing, as will Brandon Davies, who was present in the 5 All-Stars Foreigners on the last day, with 22 points and 7 rebounds.

Note that the referees will be honoured at this match.

As part of the National Referee Days, from 25 to 31 October, symbolic activities will be organised before, during and after the championship match.

For more information, see the attached documents.
