Chorale Roanne was a tough opponent for AS Monaco at the French LNB opening game, but eventually, Zvezdan Mitrovic's team prevailed by 75-80 (17-25, 23-21, 19-14, 16-20), in front of 4,200 spectators.The EuroLeague squad played without Diallo, James and Motiejunas, but the players left at the Montenegrin's coach disposal were enough to bring home their first domestic win in the season. Rob Gray starred for the 2021 EuroCup winners with 21 points, while Danilo Andjusic added 11.
