Match Info

Le Mans won a high-scoring 106-97 home battle against ÉB Pau-Orthez in Ligue Nationale de Basket Pro A, surviving a fluent offensive contest with a decisive third-quarter run and a composed finish. Both teams shot the ball well, but Le Mans found an extra gear after halftime and made the bigger plays down the stretch.

Game flow and quarter scoring

First quarter: Le Mans 26-24
Second quarter: Pau-Orthez 25-22
Third quarter: Le Mans 28-21
Fourth quarter: Le Mans 30-27

Pau-Orthez led 49-48 at halftime after a strong second quarter, but Le Mans responded with a 28-point third period to take a 76-70 advantage into the final ten minutes. The hosts then protected their lead with efficient shot-making and timely free throws.

Key moments

The turning point came early in the third quarter, when Le Mans opened with a 10-0 run to turn a one-point deficit into a 58-49 lead. Pau-Orthez fought back within four later in the period, but Le Mans closed the quarter with an 8-2 burst. In the fourth, another 8-0 run gave the hosts enough breathing room to withstand Pau-Orthez’s late three-point surge.

Tactical story

This was a pace-and-space game from the opening tip. Le Mans attacked early in the shot clock, pushed the ball in transition, and generated open threes through drive-and-kick actions. Their ball movement forced Pau-Orthez into repeated rotations, and the hosts capitalized with a balanced scoring effort.

Pau-Orthez were dangerous in transition and shot well from beyond the arc, but they could not get enough stops when it mattered. Le Mans’ rebounding advantage and their ability to draw fouls in the fourth quarter proved decisive.

Standout performers

Nathan Koffi led Le Mans with 28 points and nine assists, controlling the tempo and hitting key shots in the second half. Mathis Laurent added 24 points and 10 rebounds, giving the hosts a strong inside-outside presence. For ÉB Pau-Orthez, Jordan Diallo scored 26 points in a losing effort.

What the result means

Le Mans gain an important home win in Ligue Nationale de Basket Pro A and reaffirm their scoring depth as the season builds. Pau-Orthez leave with a strong offensive display but will focus on the defensive lapses that allowed Le Mans to score 58 points after halftime.
