Coach N'Guessan Junior Pacome stopped it, and Mamer immediately hit back with a 14-0 answer: Joshua Fleury Mary (FRA) completed a three-point play, Jonathan Henrik Wallenius (22, FIN, 16) strung together free throws, and Alexis Georges Bourgoignie Martin powered inside for a 36-27 halftime lead.

In the fourth, Jazz Pelkes authored a 5-point personal run (63-50), yet Mamer closed the door: Wallenius added back-to-back twos and two late threes, Bourgoignie Martin kept scoring in the paint, and a 7-0 burst capped by Matis Di Giacomo Russo's triple stretched the night's biggest margin to +30 (88-58) before the 88-59 final.
