O Minas manteve a invencibilidade no NBB. Nesta quinta-feira, em Bauru, o time mineiro derrotou o Bauru Basket por 77 a 64, no ginásio Panela de Pressão, pela primeira fase da competição.

Wesley foi o cestinha do jogo, com 19 pontos. Pelo lado do Dragão, Anthony Harris liderou a pontuação com 17.

Com o resultado, o Minas chegou a seis vitórias em seis partidas, segue com 100% de aproveitamento e na liderança isolada. O Bauru, por sua vez, sofreu o quarto revés seguido e caiu para a 14ª colocação.

O primeiro quarto foi disputado. O Bauru chegou a abrir quatro pontos de vantagem após Alex Garcia, de volta de lesão, acertar uma bola de três, mas, a dois segundos do fim do quarto, o Minas virou com um arremesso de três de Scala: 18 a 16.

A partir daí, os visitantes não perderam mais a dianteira. Ganharam o segundo quarto por 21 a 20 e foram ao vestiário com três pontos de vantagem. No segundo tempo, os mineiros administraram a vantagem e somaram cinco pontos a mais nos dois últimos períodos (17 a 17 e 21 a 16), conduzindo o jogo sem sustos.

O Dragão não encontrou reação, sobretudo pelo baixo aproveitamento nas bolas de dois, que ficou abaixo de 50%.

Os dois times voltam à quadra na próxima semana. O Bauru joga no Paraná na segunda-feira, contra o Pato Basquete, às 19h30. O Minas recebe o Unifacisa na quarta-feira, também às 19h30.
