Joventut Badalona Team News

Joventut’s basketball squad began the season with a 79-95 loss to Barcelona on the road. However, they bounced back in the second round with an 86-80 victory against Granada at home. These results were somewhat expected, with Joventut being clear underdogs in the first game and strong favorites in the second.

Yet, it’s apparent that Joventut is not operating at its best form. Against Granada, they struggled significantly, trailing for most of the game and only managing to turn things around late in the fourth quarter.

To improve, Joventut needs better offensive discipline and ball movement. Relying on individual brilliance and spur-of-the-moment plays won’t suffice against tougher opponents.

Andre Feliz and Ante Tomic played crucial roles in Wednesday’s win, with Feliz contributing 22 points, while the experienced Croatian center added 17.

Gran Canaria Team News

Similarly, Gran Canaria has had a mixed start to the season with one win and one loss. In the first round, they narrowly defeated Manresa 97-92, but in the second, they suffered a heavy 64-88 defeat on the road against Girona.

The match against Girona was one of the team’s worst performances in recent years. They struggled from the outset, falling behind 32-15 after the first 10 minutes. Both their offensive creativity and defensive aggression were severely lacking.

Roko Prkacin led Gran Canaria in scoring in that game with 13 points, while Ben Lammers contributed 10. The fact that only two players reached double-digit points underscores the team’s offensive struggles.
