Kosner Baskonia woke up late in Sarajevo on his visit to Dubai (100-94)

Kosner Baskonia has fallen to the Dubai Basketball despite being close to climbing a 20-point disadvantage in the last four minutes, but he has not been able to surprise the Dubai team, which has premiered with a 100-94 victory in its new home in Sarajevo (Bosnia and Herzegovina).

The Arabs have won their fifth straight win in the Euroleague, while the Alaveses have fitted their seventh defeat in the European competition by arriving at the matchwith few players  . Tim Luwawu-Cabarrothas been the last minute down .

Dwyane Bacon and Dzanan Musa were the best of the locals, while Mamadi Diakit found his place in Baskonia with 27 points and 12 rebounds.

The duel has begun in favor of the Dubai Basketball, 15-4, and the Arab team has been very vertical under the hoop against a Baskonia that has shown less strength both in defense and in attack, where it has failed a few comfortable shots under the hoop to maintain the scoring rhythm.

Dwayne Bacon led Dubai and the Arabs put 40-27 on the scoreboard.

The difference has been growing as the minutes have passed, but Baskonia has come alive in the second half thanks toa triple Markquis Nowell who has sent the teams into the locker room with a 59-45.

The break benefited Baskonia, which entered better in the third quarter and was able to reduce the difference to less than ten points thanks to a more serious defence.

The Vascons' intentions have been utterly frustrated by Bacon's talent. Moreover, Galbiati has been losing resources along the way, as has Trent Forrest, who has had disputes with the judges before reaching the last quarter, 83-67.

In just one minute the Dubai received a partial of 0-10 that allowed Baskonia to have opportunities until the end.
