Amedeo Della Valle record-breaking

With the victory in Game 3 in Pistoia against Estra with a final score of 77-98, Germani Brescia è the first team to qualify for the semifinals of the LBA Playoff UnipolSai 2024. Second best three-point percentage for Brescia, shooting in Game 3 from long distance with 60% (12/20). This season only in the game played in Treviso had Coach Magro’s lineup done better with 12 threes on 17 attempts for 70.6%.

Amedeo Della Valle, with 28 points scored and 6 threes on target, makes his second career playoff performance. Only in Game 1 of the 2022 playoff quarterfinals had he scored more (30 points put up against Sassari). The 28 points in Game 3 in Pistoia are a new season record for Della Valle, who had scored – as a previous high in the season – 26 just against Estra on the fourth day of the regular season. 

For the second time in this series, the Germani captain scored 6 triples in a game, as already happened in Game 2 and equaling again his personal record in a playoff game achieved with the jersey of Reggio Emilia in the 2014/15 season.

With the 62 points scored in the 3 Quarterfinal games against Pistoia, Della Valle rises to 102 in a Brescia jersey in the playoffs. He currently ranks fourth on the Lombardy club’s all-time list, led by Brad Branson (148) and with currently on the podium Silvano Motta (142) and Ricky Brown (112).

Della Valle è yesterday became the new leader of Brescia’s three-point shooters in the playoffs with 21 threes scored, surpassing former teammate Mitrou-Long who is stationary at 15. The white-blue No. 8 è the new leader in both the rankings for number of threes scored and percentage, having shot in the playoffs with Brescia with 44.7% in the 6 games played so far.

Seventh "double-double" in career playoffs for Miro Bilan. In addition to the two made currently with Brescia in this series (Game 1 and Game 3), he had made 5 in the 2021 and 2022 postseasons with Sassari. Bilan finished Game 3 with 14 points, 11 rebounds, 5 assists for a final rating of 26.
