Reggio Emilia lose 78-83 to Venezia

Reggio Emilia lost 78-83 to Venezia in a match played at home. The home side led for most of the game, but Venezia came back from 14 points down to take the win. Reyer's determination in the final period decided the outcome of the match.

Speaking after the game, head coach Dimitris Priftis said his team lacked ball movement in the last period. Priftis, who noted that three-point shooting was not at the expected level, also drew attention to the referees' decisions on contact. Priftis argued that opposing teams win at least 10 more fouls in every game and that in a close match the free throw difference is decisive. The head coach said this was his personal opinion.

Priftis stated that the ball should be moved better to increase success on three-point shots. Saying that two consecutive defeats had negatively affected the team's morale, Priftis acknowledged that the Final Eight goal is no longer realistic. The head coach said Coupain could be an important piece for the future.
