Kosner Baskonia's work has been unrewarded against Real Madrid (94-87)
An inspired Howard put the whites in trouble in the last quarter, but it wasn't enough to avoid another Alavés defeat outside the house.
Kosner Baskonia today lost 94-87 to Real Madrid on the 15th day of the Euroleague. In the Movistar Arena pavilion, led mainly by Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot, the Vitorians have held Real Madrid for almost the entire game.
After the break (42-39), Simmons was the Baskonia's benchmark, while Khalifa Diop hit one and screwed up the next, and his coach then prepared several changes.
But those changes have become empty because the Vitorian team was losing 53-43 after Hezonja and Campazzo scored three. Galbiati was angry on his bench and Hezonja has again scored a triple from the band, along with a Luwawu-Cabarrot foul that has facilitated the work of Real Madrid to escape on the scoreboard.
In response, two triples of Luwawu-Cabarrot and one of Clement Frisch cut distances (60-54) to 2:13 to finish the third quarter. In the last possession of the third quarter, Maledon was missing when less than a second to run out of time when he was about to score from afar, and his free shots put the 71-60 on the scoreboard.
However, Howard has appeared with two master plays, entering the board from the band and scoring a triple, setting the score of 76-71 when 7:10 to finish the game. In his sauce, the New Jersey escort has scored two more triples and turned the score (76-77). But blinking and Real Madrid has taken the lead again (82-77), helped by the Tavares plug in that process.
In 47.3 seconds to run out of time, despite a triple Luwawu-Cabarrot, the Vitorian team drowned on the edge.
