AS Monaco beat Olympiacos Piraeus 92-72 on Wednesday night, pulling away and never looking back after a great second quarter.
Key stat: Monaco's perfect quarter
The visitors led 19-22 after the first 10 minutes, but in the first 7 minutes of the second quarter Monaco put together a 26-4 spurt to open a 19-point lead.
The highlight was surely Monaco's three-point shooting. After making 3 of 5 triples in the first quarter, the hosts went on to connect on all of their 5 three-point attempts in the second. Alpha Diallo, Paris Lee and Mike James each got a single three-pointer in those 10 decisive minutes, while Brock Motum nailed a pair.
