Zach LeDay: 'I still bleed green and white'
Shields got Milan going with a driving layup. Jan Vesely erased it with his trademark mid-range jumper and found Anderson for a corner triple, good for a 5-2 lead. Mirotic stepped up for Milan, but Tomas Satoransky scored in penetration and fed Punter for a three-pointer. Jabari Parker found space for an uncontested layup, then Mirotic and Vesely each struck from downtown for a 15-9 score. LeDay improved Parker's jumper with a three-point play, then Willy Hernangomez added back-to-back layups to make Milan call a timeout at 21-12. LeDay and Shields made free throws before Dario Brizuela's triple boosted the hosts' lead to 24-16 after 10 minutes.
Ousmane Diop scored around the basket and Mirotic added a stop-and-pop triple to bring Milan within 24-21. Brizuela answered from downtown and Joel Parra matched Mirotic's jump hook with a backdoor slam. Diop kept pacing Milan and Nico Mannion made it a two-point game, 29-27. Freddie Gillespie hit a jump hook, Vesely answered with a jumper and Armoni Brooks's deep three-pointer got Milan even closer, 33-32. Anderson rescued Barca from the foul line and Parker struck from beyond the arc for a 38-32 lead. LeDay followed an off-balance jumper with a bomb from downtown in a 0-6 run that tied it at 38-38. Anderson scored down low and added a three-pointer, then Fabien Causeur's driving layup fixed the halftime score at 43-40.
Punter buried a turnaround jumper soon after the break. Shields followed a highly-contested jumper with a coast-to-coast layup to make it a one-point game, 45-44. Satoransky stepped up with a backdoor layup and a jump hook, Mannion and Anderson traded layups and Punter gave Barca fresh air at 52-46. Juan Nunez and Causeur each struck from beyond the arc for their respective teams, then LeDay did even better with a four-point play. Punter hit a jumper and erased Shields's triple with his own shot from downtown. LeDay and Neno Dimitrijevic hit a three-pointer apiece and combined for 12 points in a mammoth 0-20 run which Bolmaro capped with free throws to break the game open, 60-76, at the end of the third quarter.
Vesely hit another jumper early in the fourth quarter and soon added a layup that gave Barca hope at 64-76. LeDay scored down low and matched Anderson's triple with his own make from three-point land, restoring a 67-81 Milan margin. Vesely kept pacing Barca with a layup, yet Mirotic scored around the basket and made free throws to seal the outcome, 69-85, with 4 minutes remaining. Barca kept trying to change things but LeDay's three-point play rounded a near-perfect performance and allowed Milan to celebrate a well-deserved victory long before the final buzzer.
