Could it get any tighter in the Italian league? Seems difficult as seven teams are tied with a 6-7 record after round 13. And only one win separates fourth place Pesaro with 12th place Treviso. The latter and Roma got important home wins respectively against Brindisi (90-66) and Montegranaro (88-73).
Beaten by Pesaro 76-75, Cantù lost the second place it had hardly taken in the derby against Milan a few days ago. Meanwhile, Siena added another win to its collection in Avellino and stays top. Kaukenas and Lavrinovic scored 14 points each for the Italian champions.
