Kosner Baskonia continues to curse home in the Euroleague after losing to Valencia (91-81)
Galbiati's team made a bad first part and the Valencia team left on the scoreboard. After the break, the Alavés team was better, but it was not enough to go back to the meeting.

Kosner Baskonia has not won home in the Euroleague for more than a year and the curse has continued in Valencia this afternoon. A weak defense, crazy ball losses (22) and a mistake from the line of three (7/23) have once again thwarted a possible reaction from the Galbiati boys, despite trying (91-81).
In the first quarter, the Vitorian team has not gone off the field badly, but Valencia has taken advantage of its ability from the line of three by scoring five out of eight attempts. The Alavés team has not been right in defense and has scored 27 points in the first quarter, finished eight points behind on the scoreboard (27-19).
Galbiati's game has got worse at the beginning of the second quarter and they have been 21 points below the scoreboard. However, the Italian technician has asked for a gap and his team has shown more defensive intensity since then. In addition, Luwawu-Cabarrot (13 points), the top scorer of the Euroleague, has helped to narrow the gap slightly before the break (58-47).
Baskonia has finished the third quarter in the game (76-65), with no reaction after passing through the locker room, as the Vitorian team has again made gifts and mistakes in easy shots.
In the last quarter, the Vitorian team has tried and squeezed the locals, who have come several times on the scoreboard, but Galbiati's men have not been able to win their first Euroleague home victory a year later, so the Alavés team has suffered a new defeat away from home.
