The dispute of the 21st date of the Uruguayan Basketball League began this Tuesday where Nacional, Malvín and Defensor Sporting won.
On Monday, Peñarol beat Trouville and Biguá beat Olimpia in delayed duels of the 17th and 18th date, respectively.
With those results, Peñarol took a breath of air in its eagerness to escape relegation while Olimpia accumulated its sixth consecutive defeat and he is beyond committed.
The Defensor Sporting win over Urunday Universitario (75-73 in overtime) also complicated the scholar and alienated the merger that since the arrival of Gonzalo Fernández is another team, ostensibly improving the pale image that Defensor Sporting had under the command of Daniel Seoane.

Nacional thrashed Aguada 87-67 and remains firm in its attempt to finish the regular season among the top five that will qualify for the playoffs.
Former Aguada Federico Pereiras was the scorer of the match with 17 points.

Malvin defeated Goes 109-91 with the best individual performance by a player so far in the tournament. The American Daniel Hamilton scored 43 points with 11 triples on 14 attempts.

This is how the table of positions remained with the minimum and maximum that each team can reach on the remaining dates.
This table can change if the ruling on the incidents between Aguada and Goes comes out this Wednesday and if both teams are penalized with points deducted.
