Soko didn’t miss a shot from inside the arc, going 6-6 for his 15 points in 18 minutes, whilst adding four steals in the game 2 win on the road.
The 24-year-old averaged 13.2 points along with 5.4 rebounds per game in 34 appearances during his first season as a pro having graduated from Duquesne last summer.
Soko has racked up over 500 points in all competitions this season with a career-high 28-point haul on 9-11 shooting coming earlier in the campaign.
Boulazac finished third in the Pro-B standings after finishing the regular season with a 21-13 record.
They face Denain next in the semi-finals with Soko hoping to help his side achieve promotion to Pro-A.
