Unicaja-Real Madrid: final of the XV Costa del Sol Tournament, at 7:00 pm live on Realmadrid TV
Pedro Martínez's squad is seeking to win this trophy for the seventh time in their last preseason friendly.
Real Madrid faces Unicaja de Málaga this evening at the Martín Carpena in the final of the XV edition of the Costa del Sol Tournament (7:00 pm, Realmadrid TV). Less than a week before the official season begins with the semifinals of the EuroLeague Super Cup against Dubai Basketball (Friday the 18th, 6:45 pm), our team will aim to claim this preseason tournament for the seventh time following yesterday's victory over La Laguna Tenerife.
Unicaja will provide another good test for the madridistas to continue adapting and gaining momentum in their preparation for the new season. Yesterday, we once again saw a Madrid team that is increasingly well-prepared and implementing Pedro Martínez's recognizable style. Our team defeated La Laguna Tenerife 90-97 after a second-half comeback. Luwawu-Cabarrot stood out in the game with 26 points and a performance index rating of 27.
Opponent
Facing them is Unicaja, who on Thursday defeated La Laguna Tenerife in the tournament's opening game (80-76). The Málaga-based team has undergone many changes following the departure of eight players and their coach. Txus Vidorreta has taken over as head coach, bringing in experienced players like Willy Hernangómez, Pantzar, Brazdeikis, Noua, and Hunt.
