It has been 56 years since Real Madrid's 12th Basketball Cup. On April 23, 1970, our team was crowned champion after defeating Joventut (102-90) in the final held in León. After overcoming Estudiantes in the quarterfinals and SD Kas in the semifinals, Real Madrid claimed the Cup three years after their previous title.
In that final against Joventut, Luyk and Cabrera were the standout players for the madridistas, each scoring over 20 points. After a closely contested first half (47-40), the team coached by Pedro Ferrándiz managed to maintain the lead, marking the beginning of one of the most brilliant eras for Real Madrid in the Spanish Cup (six consecutive titles).
