Mambra Mamer B, now 3rd after gaining one place, edged 6th-placed Les Sangliers Wooltz 74-70 in a close Phase finale game. Mamer B answered well after their previous defeat, while SAN remained without a win and their losing run continued.
Arnaud Stirn's side opened with a 6-0 run, but Wooltz settled through Noé Salomao Raveane (Season PPG: 16.60) and Adam Ajdinovic (Season PPG: 21.33). The first quarter closed at 20-20, then SAN produced their best stretch. From 22-21, Wooltz pushed the game toward their biggest lead, 42-32, around halftime. Raveane was especially strong in that phase and scored 8 SAN points in a row in the second quarter.
Mamer B changed the momentum after the break. Arda Selim Isiklar (Season PPG: 12.07) led the comeback with 29 points, and Phivos Sortikos (Season PPG: 11.59) added 21. The home team reduced the gap to 54-49 after three quarters before taking the last period 25-16.
The crucial sequence came late. SAN still led 65-63, but Mamer answered with an 11-2 run to 74-67. Sortikos hit two important threes in the fourth quarter, and Isiklar kept scoring at the rim and on the line. Wooltz stayed close behind Ajdinovic's 30 points, including several key threes, and Raveane finished with 29, matching his season best, but his back-to-back fourth-quarter fouls ended with a foul-out. Emanuel Palai added 9 for Mamer, while Ruben El Mahr (15, BEL) gave useful support with 4 second-quarter points.
