FC Barcelona extended its winning streak to three games after crushing Virtus Segrafredo Bologna 75-92 at Virtus Segrafredo Arena on Thursday night. The visitors gave no chance to their opponent, amassing a 20-point advantage at halftime and reaching a game-high 37-point difference late in the third quarter that made the fourth just an administrative process with no real impact on the final outcome.
It didn’t look like it was going to be a blowout early in the second quarter when Jordan Mickey nailed a three that made it 23-24. But, at that moment, Virtus wasted five consecutive possessions to get in front and Barcelona reacted fiercely, outscoring the hosts 0-21 to put the game upside down.
Alex Abrines started the fire with a three and a two-pointer and soon after it was Rokas Jokubaitis and Nikola Mirotic who joined the party. This trio combined for 18 points in that span, with Nicolas Laprovittola contributing a triple to help Barcelona establish a 23-45 score that was too much for the home team.
