MADRID, 30 Mar. (EUROPA PRESS) –
Unicaja beat Bàsquet Girona with authority (111-80) this Saturday on matchday 27 of the Endesa League, a victory that consolidates its second place in the table, while Lenovo Tenerife also destroyed Zunder Palencia (68-89) in search of being seeded in the ‘playoffs’, a ‘Top 8’ that Baskonia reached.
Before facing the quarterfinals of the FIBA Champions, the Malaga team added its 22nd victory in the domestic competition, the biggest pursuer of the leader Real Madrid. Those from Ibon Navarro, with the ninth best record in their history, unleashed the perfect storm at the Martín Carpena. Osetkowski (21 points) and the third quarter of Perry and Kalinoski launched a Unicaja coral.
On the other hand, Lenovo Tenerife achieved its third victory in the League before also facing its European cross. Those from Txus Vidorreta, with 17 wins in fourth position, had no mercy for a bottom team that was losing strength in its attempt to come back. Kyle Guy (25 points), Joan Sastre (20) and the direction of Marcelinho Huertas (10 points and 11 assists) made the difference.
Furthermore, Baskonia resisted (102-94) the energy of a Casademont Zaragoza that insisted on coming back despite being 58-40 after a great first half by the Basques. The Fernando Buesa Arena, which does not have everything with it in the Euroleague, celebrated a vital victory to sleep in the playoff zone in the League thanks to Chima Moneke (22 points), Vanja Marinkovic (19) and Matt Costello (18).
Meanwhile, Surne Bilbao Basket added a calm victory in the table, the third in a row, to trust in permanence. The ‘men in black’ beat Río Breogán (68-80), with Keith Hornsby scoring 22 points (23 PIR), leaving the Galician team in relegation positions.
