The Granada team displayed great consistency and solid defense, which were key to maintaining their lead throughout the game. The collective effort was fundamental in overcoming an opponent who struggled to find their rhythm in the early stages of the match.
The first quarter was dominated by Covirán Granada, who capitalized on a hesitant start from the Malaga team. With an outstanding performance from their players, the home side built a lead of up to eleven points, ending the period with a score of 24-9. Granada's defense limited Unicaja's shooting accuracy, resulting in low percentages for field goals and three-pointers.
In the second quarter, Unicaja reacted, narrowing the gap to six points thanks to improved shooting, especially from the free-throw line. However, Covirán Granada remained composed and, despite some turnovers, managed to go into halftime with a ten-point lead (41-31).
The second half began with renewed momentum from Covirán Granada, extending their lead to eighteen points. Although Unicaja attempted to close the gap, the home team effectively managed the pressure and, with good player rotation, maintained defensive intensity. The final quarter confirmed Granada's superiority, reaching a maximum lead of 23 points, and concluding the game with a decisive 83-71 victory.
“"The team led by Arturo Ruiz took advantage, in the first ten minutes, of the sluggish start from the Malaga squad."
