JL Bourg Masters Their Domain

Despite the absence of three key players – Nathan Soliman (hand), Tysan Walker (muscle strain), and Anthony Labanca (hamstring) – JL Bourg demonstrated remarkable resilience. Following their semi-final victory over Fribourg, they decisively defeated Treviso, at one point building an impressive 22-point lead (46-24).

Leading the scoring for JL Bourg were Tyrese Samuel with 19 points, Assémian Moularé with 14 points and 7 assists, and Hugo Robineau with 11 points. Lionel Gaudoux was the team's top rebounder with 8 boards.

"It's good to start by winning this tournament in front of our home crowd, but we still have things to work on, especially defensively. We also need to get players back," emphasized coach Frédéric Fauthoux to Le Progrès. "Tonight, we were missing three perimeter players. In building the team, connections are being made even with many players out. We need to get them back quickly to establish chemistry."
