After winning the first game of the best-of-three series, Fluminense will face Betim América Towers again this Tuesday (04/21) in the second game of the Liga Ouro basketball quarterfinals. The game will be played at 4 p.m. at Ginásio João Coelho Netto, in Laranjeiras, and will be broadcast on the NBB’s YouTube channel. In the first game of the matchup, the Tricolor beat the Minas Gerais team 79-76 on the road and is now looking for another win to secure a spot in the semifinals.
If they win the second game, Fluminense will face Brusque in the next round. If they lose, the third and decisive game will be played on Wednesday (04/22) at 8 p.m. in Laranjeiras.
“It’s a very important game for us. Even though we’ve won the last three games we played against them, they’re a tough team, a team that fights until the end, which is why all the games have been close. Expectations are very good, because in the last game we managed to put in a strong performance, impose our pace, and play aggressively. Now, with the home crowd behind us, it’s about going at them and securing this semifinal spot,” said center Alcassa.
The Tricolor have two players at the top of the Liga Ouro stats: point guard Brito is the league’s leading scorer, averaging 17.5 points per game, while center Alcassa leads the tournament in rebounds, averaging 11 per game, and is tied for the top spot in blocks, with 1.2 per game. Brito also leads the team in assists and steals, averaging 4.7 and 1.7 per game, respectively.
