BarcelonaBarça have not lost since October 20 and have started November with their best version. Some players like Mike Tobey – who was ruled out yesterday -, Niko Laprovittola, Àlex Abrines or Oriol Paulí have grown mustaches to join the Movember campaign and raise awareness of the fight against prostate cancer. The best of the triumph against Básquet Girona, however, was Oscar da Silva. The pivot wing added 16 points and 14 rebounds in his best performance as a Barcelona player.
A child against a disappearance
Girona Basketball lost to Can Barça, where Eric Vila trained as a player. The winger lived his Blaugrana years with passion, but when he was young he was a regular at Fontajau. When Akasvayu Girona had problems, he went to different mobilizations to try to prevent his disappearance. “Basquet Girona is trying to bring in players who feel represented. We feel identified with the values proposed by the club, and the fans with the players”, he says.
A patch that didn’t work
Joventut Badalona signed Jarrod Jones on a one-month contract, but the winger’s contribution has not been as expected and he will not continue in Badalona. After the defeat on the court of UCAM Murcia, the green-and-black team is already analyzing its possibilities, because William Howard still needs time to recover from his twin injury. While studying the market in offices, the coaching staff is already working to try to reduce the irregularity on the floor.
The three duties of Baxi Manresa
Baxi Manresa comes to the end of the Liga Endesa with five consecutive defeats, but Pedro Martínez has a clear roadmap to turn the situation around. “Training, recovering players we have injured and looking for people in the market to help us change the dynamics we are in. The goal is 16th place”, says the coach of the team from Bagan. The third quarter against Carplus Fuenlabrada excessively penalized a team that did not quite find its expected performance.
