Hello, good morning and welcome to the raffle of the Basketball King’s Cup. We are at the beginning of one of the great events on the sporting calendar. It is true that the matches of the final phase will not be played until the days February 19 and 20, the 21st will be the semifinals and the 22nd will be the grand final. But we will know the almost definitive roadmap, the quarterfinal matchup table and the teams’ path to the final.
And we say almost definitive because, something unusual, one of the seeds remains to be determined. It is not an obstacle to holding the draw, but it is possible that we will not know two of the quarterfinal matches until the next day February 8which is when the Dreamland Gran Canaria – Baskoniapostponed at the time and which ends up being crucial for the classification. For that match, if the Baskonia wins, he will be seeded, if he loses that place will be occupied by UCAM Murcia.
That is why in today’s draw, from 12:00 p.m., we will see a ball in the bomb 1 and another in the bomb 2 with the name of UCAM Murcia/Kosber Baskonia. When that doubt is cleared up, everything will be clear. In the meantime, unless the two balls come out in the same matches (all four duels would be known), it is possible that we will only have 100% in two of the four quarterfinal ties.
The draw will take place at the Teatre Martin i Soler – Palau de les Arts Reina Sofía in Valencia. You know, the Cup will be played at the Roig Arena. First we will have the draw for the Mini Cup and then there will be the draw for the final phase. The event will be led by the journalist Alejandra Llambés and by the former ACB player Pepe Pozas. And the innocent hands in the drawing will be those of Victor Claver and David Ferrer, two illustrious Valencians who will determine the fate of the draw. We tell you everything in Marca.com.
