Tenerife Team News
Although they are not part of the Euroleague, Tenerife with Txus VidorretA in this era stood out as one of the five best Spanish clubs. Two years ago, they played in the Endesa League’s semifinals, which is the minimum that is expected even now. In the FIBA Champions League, they were eliminated by Hapoel Jerusalem in the semifinals and did not reach the third trophy in the competition’s history.
Tenerife dances to the tunes of its veterans. The owners of the game have been together for several years, and sometimes it seems that they can play with each other with their eyes closed. The pick’n’roll game of Marcelinho Huertas and Giorgio Shermadini is pure poetry. When Sasu Salin, Aaron Doornekamp, Joan Sastre, and Tim Abromaitis shoot from a distance, it is challenging to beat Tenerife. We should not forget the defense, which is even the better part of the team this season.
Indeed Tenerife will have a certain revenge motive in this quarter-final series. The final of the King’s Cup was an extraordinary opportunity to claim all the good results in the national framework, but Unicaja got in the way. Now Vidorreta’s chosen ones will try to strike back.

Unicaja Team News
The most important thing for Unicaja is that they have once again become a relevant factor in Spanish basketball. It took four years for them to even return to the Endesa League playoffs, and they also achieved fantastic results in other competitions.
The already mentioned winning the King’s Cup will be remembered forever. It was only the second time in the club’s history that they won the national cup, and they eliminated Barcelona, Real Madrid, and Tenerife on the way to the trophy. They also had huge ambitions in the FIBA Champions League because they organized the Final Four, but the subsequent winner Bonn in the semi-finals, got in the way. One of the main decisions of Unicaja is that they don’t have a clear leader, but many players on the roster can shine when they are in the mood.
It will be very important for Unicaja to impose its rhythm. After Baskonia and Real Madrid, they score the most points on average and will try to speed up this away game as well. If they fail to do so, it will be very difficult for them to beat Tenerife on a small number of points.

Tenerife vs Unicaja Prediction
