Real Madrid victory (9-0) on the home front before the trip to Kaunas.
Pablo Lasas’s students are invited after a tenacious struggle 85:83 (23:12, 21:17, 14:31, 27:23) broke the RETAbet team (1-6) in Bilbao, represented by Arnold Kulboka, and remains undefeated.
With less than two minutes left in the game, Real led 74:73, but then Sergio Llull realized a two-point lead and Trey Thompkins a three-point lead and gave the guests a more solid lead (79 : 73).
Still, Jaylon Brown struck from distance and soon added a shot from mid-range and, 17 seconds later, the hosts’ deficit fell to 3 points – 78:81.
However, Facundo Campazzo, who joined the free throw line, scored both penalties and ensured Real’s victory (83:78).
