A defeat that doesn’t hurt! Alba Berlin lost 87:93 at Baskonia Vitoria in the Euroleague, remaining penultimate.
It was an exciting game in which the lead kept changing back and forth. For the Spaniards it is still about the playoff participation, Alba can concentrate on the Bundesliga and above all has to be careful that nobody gets injured.
Coach Israel Gonzalez (48): “We played well against a strong team. We showed a good spirit, that was very important for us.”
The best thrower was national player Maodo Lo (15 points). Alba stays in Spain, where the next game at FC Barcelona will take place on Thursday (8.30 p.m., Magentasport live).
