The loneliness of Mykonos at the top and what stood out from the 8th matchday

Mykonos enjoying the solitude of the top, the best attack, the best defense, the unexpected and everything that stood out from the epic 8th matchday of the Elite League.

The precious Byron Wesley and the distribution of home and away victories in the review of the 8th turn of the second-ranked division of Greek basketball from SPORT24.

MVP

Byron Wesley was a leader not only in the victory of Ermis Schimatarios over Herakles, but also in the entire competition of the second division of Greek basketball. The experienced American guard had a multidimensional offer in his team’s game with 26 points (10/16 2-pointers, 1/2 three-pointers, 3/6 shots), 7 rebounds, 6 assists and 3 steals, accumulating 28 points in the evaluation system.

Attack… fire

Proteas Voulas takes the title of the best attack of the matchday in the away win over Esperos Lamias. The winners scored 91 points, winning the positive result and even with a double-digit difference, since the final score was 91-79 in favor of the Voula team. Proteas scored 20/37 two-pointers, 12/28 three-pointers and 15/23 shots.

Defense… reinforced concrete

In a game that took about three hours to complete due to an almost one-hour stoppage, Korivos Amaliadas won with a “weapon” defense. Michelakou’s team kept Psychiko to 56 points and relatively easily got the positive result with a 15 point difference (71-56).

The unexpected

There was something unexpected in the match between Korivos and Psychiko and brought an interruption to the game for almost an hour. Specifically, 3’36” before the break, the power went out, while when it came back on, the match could not continue again, as the heavy rain in Amaliada brought a large volume of water to the stadium from the roof. Finally, the match continued with Korivo to take the victory with 71-56.

Absolute balance

Absolute balance in home and away wins in the 8th matchday of the Elite League. Ermis Schimatariou, Koroivos Amaliadas, Megarida and Trikala prevailed at home, while Mykonos, Doxa Lefkada, Vikos Ioannina and Proteas Voulas left with “doubles” from their opponents’ seats.

The winners of the competition

Ermis Schimatariou, Mykonos, Doxa Lefkada, Koroivos Amaliada, Megarida, Vikos Ioannina, Proteas Voulas and Trikala continued their competitive duties in the Elite League with victories.
