Joventut Team News
Joventut’s basketball players are recording quite solid results this season as well. They reached the semifinals of the Eurocup, where they were defeated by Gran Canaria, and at the same stage of the competition, they also reached the King’s Cup. There they lost to Tenerife.
As for the ACB League, they are currently seventh in the table with a win-loss record of 18-13. Gran Canaria, ranked sixth, has the same result. What is a bit worrying is their form in the last few games.
They were defeated in the previous four meetings in all competitions, and two of the four defeats were by double digits. In most of those games, they were not efficient enough offensively. They averaged 77 points, and this team can improve their offensive performance for the rest of the season.
Baskonia Team News
On the other hand, Baskonie basketball players, after the unfortunate relegation from the Euroleague, entirely devoted themselves to competitions in the ACB league. They are currently on a four-game winning streak, so ahead of this game, they are tied for the lead with Barcelona. Both teams achieved 26 wins and 5 losses each.
Joan Penarroy’s men have been playing incredibly in attack all season, and their latest results show that. They defeated Obradoiro 110-94, Fuenlabrada 112-93, Breogan 97-76 and Gran Canaria 101-97. As you can see, they scored 97 or more points in every match and even over 100 three times.
They force a fast and dynamic style of basketball and always look for easy points in the counterattack. There are enough good shooters on the roster, so opposing defenses are often tested because it is unknown who is the biggest threat.
