Dexia Dash Cedevita Last 16 Hopes

Dexia Mons-Hainaut claimed a resounding victory over Cedevita Zagreb on the last night of Group D action in the EuroChallenge.

Arik Shivek's team won 85-64 but finished third behind Proteas EKA AEL.

Proteas Lower The Boom On Dexia

The victory avenged an 11-point defeat to Dexia earlier in the competition and also gave the Cypriot club, participants in the last two Final Fours, a 3-2 record in Group D while dropping the Belgian outfit to 2-3.

More Quacking Now From Dexia

It was fitting at the start of the season at Dexia Mons-Hainaut that when Ben Ebong was introduced to the crowd at the club's opening ceremonies, he ran onto the floor clasping a white duck in both hands.

Ebong, who had helped a magician make that very duck disappear earlier in the night, wouldn't have known it at the time but he and his teammates were going to lay a few eggs in the coming weeks through not much fault of their own.

Ebong And Costner Lead Dexia To Win

Ben Ebong and Brandon Costner had 20 points each as Dexia Mons-Hainaut levelled their record in Group D of the EuroChallenge with an 84-67 win over Elan Chalon.

Dexia let one big early lead evaporate as the visitors tied the game on Marcellus Sommerville's three-pointer midway through the third quarter.
