The Madrid dominance was especially evident in the second half, where the whites imposed a score of 47-20 that ended any possibility of resistance from the Girona team. The absence of Kutluay allowed Andrej Fantic to take on greater offensive responsibility, contributing 22 points to the rout. This type of performance highlights the depth of a team capable of performing at a high level even without all its players available.

Fundación CB Canarias also wrote a special chapter in this round by achieving its first victory of the season.

Badalona halts Murcia and shapes Group B

In Group B, the round brought a highly relevant result: Joventut Badalona ended the unbeaten streak of UCAM Murcia CAR with a victory of 85-74. The Murcian team, which arrived at this date without knowing defeat, suffered its first setback of the season against the verdinegro team.

Humberto Ruiz, Diego Niebla, and Ferran Mauri were the main responsible parties for Badalona’s attack, combining for 64 of the 85 points that allowed them to break the match open.

Amara Lleida claims its place with victory in Santiago

Amara Lleida completed the round of winning debuts by defeating Monbus Obradoiro by 69-73 under adverse conditions. The Leridian team faced the match without Pau Torrens, a significant absence that did not prevent the visitors from carrying the game. The start was difficult for Lleida, as they found themselves down 16-6 in the early phases. However, the team did not lose heart and managed to overcome that initial disadvantage through stronger defensive work and greater effectiveness in attack. The third quarter proved decisive, with the Leridian team imposing a score of 29-15 that allowed them to change the course of the scoreboard and control the end of the game.

Izan Martos was the highest scorer for Lleida and also the most valued player in the match with 27 points, demonstrating that Amara Lleida has sufficient offensive resources to compete in this category. Meanwhile, Monbus Obradoiro suffers its second consecutive defeat after starting the Liga U with three straight victories. This streak of negative results highlights the competitiveness of the league, where no team can relax without risking losing continuity.
