The 2019–20 season is Dinamo Sassari's 60th in existence and the club's 10th consecutive season in the top flight of Italian basketball.
Overview
Sassari comes from a very successful 2018-19 season both in the Italian league and European league. They won, indeed, the FIBA Europe Cup and for the first time of the history of the club, Sassari added a European level trophy in their palmares.
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[1] 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 [2] 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.[3] Sassari ended the championship in 2nd position.
