Monaco is off to a good start in 2022 in the Euroleague. Thursday, January 13, the Roca Team managed to get rid of Bayern Munich away (78-83). With this eighth success, ASM returns to the level of the Bavarians in the standings and can still dream of a place in the top 8, its only way of replaying the Euroleague next season.
Despite only one meeting played in more than two weeks due to the postponements of its matches against Villeurbanne and Kazan for health reasons, the Roca Team did not seem rusty.
It must be said that its star Mike James has oiled the wheels (26 points, 6 assists, 4 rebounds). The top scorer of the 2018-2019 Euroleague season carries a large part of this only third success for his team away in C1. And the first after 40 minutes since the Monegasques had to wait for extra time to beat Kazan and Kaunas.
