However, a 2+1 play by Cameron Hunt just before the buzzer restored calm for Unicaja (43-28).
After halftime, the pattern continued. The aggressive play near the basket by Barreiro and Brazdeikis widened the advantage (49-30), and a three-pointer by Simonas Lukosius re-established the largest difference (56-35). Although Caja 87 answered with two consecutive triples from Nacho Arroyo, Willy Hernangómez and Djedovic pushed the lead back to twenty points before the end of the third quarter with a score of 65-45.
