In Italy, Sassari reached the finals and lost the series at the last best of 4 match, interrupting an incredible series of 15 consecutive wins in the Italian league.
Coach Gianmarco Pozzecco was hired during the 2018-19 season and, since his establishment, he lost only four games in the finals against Reyer Venezia after winning 23 consecutive games amongst Europe Cup and Serie A.
He got his contract extended for the next three years and immediately won the 2019 Italian Basketball Supercup in the new season.
The 2019-20 season was hit by the coronavirus pandemic that compelled the federation to suspend and later cancel the competition without assigning the title to anyone. Sassari ended the championship in 2nd position.
