MADRID, 27 Abr. (EUROPA PRESS) –
Dreamland Gran Canaria defeated Joventut (97-79) this Saturday to mathematically ensure their presence in the playoffs of the Endesa League, in a matchday 31 that also left the victory in search of the ‘Top 8’ of a Baskonia which certified the relegation of bottom player Zunder Palencia (94-101).
Those from Las Palmas prevented Dani Miret’s men from taking the lead, after their first victory with the Catalans’ new coach last week, growing in the second half. John Shurna (27 points) condemned a ‘Penya’ team that got tangled up in losses and couldn’t stand the yellow blow after the break.
The Canaries thus added the twentieth victory of the course to know that they are already in the fight for the title and firm in the fight to be seeded. Baskonia sleeps in the noble area, waiting for what BAXI Manresa does this Sunday against Valencia Basket, thanks to a once again lethal Markus Howard.
The Barça star scored 36 points at the Buesa Arena, giving faith to his team ahead of the Euroleague playoff that traveled to Vitoria with a 2-0 win against Real Madrid. Zunder Palencia fought tooth and nail until the end, without avoiding a defeat that consummated their relegation a year after debuting in the ACB.
Meanwhile, Bàsquet Girona breathed easy with its virtual salvation with the victory (81-68) over Surne Bilbao Basket, where Iroegbu once again excelled with 21 points. Furthermore, in a direct duel to avoid the burning of the relegation zone, Río Breogán beat Coviran Granada (84-85) with a vital Anthony Polite.
