Reyer Venezia continued their strong push for a top-four finish in Italy’s Lega Basket Serie A with an 89-82 victory over a gritty Derthona Basket side at the Palasport Taliercio on May 18, 2026. The win keeps Venezia firmly in the playoff picture and hands Derthona their third consecutive road defeat.
Match Summary
Venezia controlled the tempo from the opening tip, using a balanced scoring attack to build a 12-point lead midway through the second quarter. Derthona fought back behind the sharp shooting of guard Chris Dowe, cutting the deficit to just three at halftime, 46-43. The third quarter proved decisive. A 9-0 run sparked by point guard Marco Spissu gave Venezia a double-digit buffer that they would not relinquish.
Key Performances
- Marco Spissu (Venezia): The Italian international had a game-high 22 points and 7 assists. His leadership in the critical third quarter was instrumental, as he scored 10 points in the period.
- Jeff Brooks (Venezia): Provided a double-double with 14 points and 11 rebounds, anchoring the interior defense.
- Chris Dowe (Derthona): Led his team with 18 points and 5 assists. He single-handedly kept Derthona competitive in the first half.
Tactical Story
The key tactical battle played out in the paint. Venezia’s big men, especially Brooks and veteran center Paul Biligha, combined for 26 rebounds, limiting Derthona’s second-chance opportunities. Offensively, Venezia ran the pick-and-roll effectively, creating mismatches that led to open three-pointers (they shot 10-of-22 from beyond the arc). Meanwhile, Derthona struggled from deep, connecting on only 6-of-23 attempts.
Season & Standings Context
With the victory, Reyer Venezia improves to 16-10 on the season, moving into a tie for fourth place with Reggio Emilia. Derthona falls to 12-14, sitting in ninth place—just outside the playoff cutoff. The two teams will not face each other again in the regular season, making this result a crucial tiebreaker advantage for Venezia.
“We knew they would be tough, but we played our game,” Venezia head coach Neven Spahija said. “We controlled the pace and executed down the stretch. That’s how you win in this league.”
