AS Monaco finished the regular season with a 91-74 win over visiting ALBA Berlin, and did so partly by shooting the ball well but also by barely giving ALBA any transition opportunities.
Telling numbers: Monaco shoots well, limits turnovers

Monaco shot the ball well from long range, making 9-of-20 triples (45.0%), and also went 25-of-45 (55.6%) inside. Even though Monaco got outrebounded (34-37), and even more so on the offensive glass (11-16), Monaco controlled the game by committing only 7 turnovers, compared to ALBA's 12. Interestingly, Monaco also had 6 steals by five different players, including 2 by Paris Lee. Those 6 steals are just 1 shy of matching the team's turnovers total, which is always an almost certain recipe for success in any basketball game.
