Game Notes: Bayern vs. ASVEL



The hosts boosted their confidence with a comfortable German derby victory over ALBA last week, with Danko Brankovic enjoying a breakout game of 14 points and 9 rebounds to further add to Pablo Laso’s big man options.

Mike Scott paced ASVEL with 21 points on 5-of-8 three-point shooting and he will look to recover his usual scoring threat after reaching double-digits in only one of the last four games.
