With ten games remaining until the end of the regular season, Flamengo regained the lead in the NBB classification after a week with Minas' stumble. The teams have been fighting for the top of the table since the beginning of the season. But, with the Minas Gerais team's defeat to São Paulo, Franca also gained a position. Check out everything that happened in the last week of Novo Basquete Brasil.
To return to the top of the NBB classification, Flamengo won its two commitments of the week. Both, in fact, away from home. On Thursday, they beat Cerrado in a tough game. On Saturday, it was time to beat Brasília with a packed gym. This is because the BRB Nilson Nelson Arena received 11 thousand fans.
Minas, in turn, only played one match. Even playing at home, they were surpassed by São Paulo. The São Paulo tricolor has been on the rise this season and achieved a great triumph at the UniBH Arena. So, it was the third setback for the Minas Gerais team playing at home. With the defeat, they fell to third place.
Franca, who had fewer games than their direct rivals, played three matches in the last seven days. And he beat them all. The first two matches, against Pinheiros and Corinthians, were away from home. Closing the busy week, the current NBB champion overcame Pato Basquete without difficulty at Pedrocão.
But one of the main duels in national basketball last week was between Bauru and Vasco. The teams, which have similar campaigns, faced each other at the Pressure Cooker Gym. The Rio club then got the better of it and forced the São Paulo team's first defeat at home in the current season. Bauru, after all, had won 11 home games, but ended up being defeated by the Cruz-Maltino team. Thus, Vasco consolidated itself in fourth place in the NBB.
It is also worth highlighting São José's good performances. The team started the season very well, but dropped in production. Now, he played good games again and came away with two victories. With a century-old score, they beat União Corinthians, at home. The match was marked by the historic performance of point guard Diego Figueredo, who scored 41 points. As a result, it broke the current campaign's points record and reached the ninth highest score in the league's history.
Finally, the NBB week had the majestic classic. São Paulo and Corinthians faced each other at Morumbi. The tricolor had achieved great results against Minas, while the black and white team had been surpassed by Franca. However, the one who came out on top was Timão. In fact, it was Corinthians' first victory at their rival's home in the history of the NBB.

Flamengo secured another victory in the Clássico dos Milhões for the Novo Basquete Brasil (NBB), defeating Vasco by 84 to 78. After seeing their rival dominate the first half, the Rubro-Negro reacted in the second half of the game, especially in the third quarter, when they made it 29 to 15. One of the protagonists of the comeback, point guard Alexey had a decisive performance, recording a double-double with 22 points and 12 assists.
“The change in attitude we had between half-time and the second half was very important. We came back with a lot of energy, aggressiveness in defense and confidence in attack. All of this helped us come out with the victory,” Alexey highlighted after the game.
ALEXEY CELEBRATES HIS TENTH CONSECUTIVE CLASSIC WIN
In addition to another triumph in the NBB, the victory marked Flamengo's 10th consecutive victory over Vasco. The point guard, who was a key player in the match, highlighted the importance of winning games of this level, which move the fans.
“It’s always very important to win games, especially a derby. I think it’s the kind of game that the fans like the most. I don’t want to talk about the opposing team, because I don’t think it’s worth it. So the most important thing today was our change of attitude. They played a better first half than us, but we managed to outdo them in the second and secured the victory,” said Alexey.
FLAMENGO'S REACTION DURING THE GAME
Vasco started the game with more momentum and led the score until halftime. However, after the break, Flamengo came back with a more aggressive stance and managed to turn the game around in the third quarter. According to Alexey, the performance in the second half of the game was what guaranteed the positive result.
“We knew we needed to come back more intense and take better advantage of our opportunities. We were able to increase the pace, defend well and attack more efficiently. This change made all the difference for us to leave the court with the victory,” analyzed the point guard.
With the victory in the classic, Mais Querido maintains its good moment in the competition and remains strong in the fight for the top positions in the NBB. Vasco, which now has a difficult sequence against Paulistano, Minas, Brasília, Franca and Bauru, seeks a reaction to guarantee a place in the playoffs.
