Nigel Williams-Goss. Approved: A good start as a base, although somewhat unwise in his specialty, medium-distance launches. In the second half he continued to contribute at a good level.
Fabien Causeur. Suspense: It was difficult for him to find his moment, to remember the decisive player from other final phases.
Anthony Randolph. Approved: Pretty good in attack, he was one of the few with clear ideas in the worst moments of the second quarter. In defense it was another story. There the task of replacing Tavares became more difficult.
Rudy Fernandez. Approved: Fight and intensity, as always. Poor shot selection, he started with two triples that didn’t touch a rim.
Alberto Abalde. He did not play.
Adam Hanga. Approved: He started as a starter and was important in the defense of the first period. In attack he was not seen.
Mario Hezonja. Remarkable: Very good in defense as a four along with Randolph, at least inches the team had on the inside. His initial 0/4 three-pointer clouded his performance in the first half. He opened the second with his first three-pointer of the match and, although he later had more misses than hits in the shot, he was key in quartermaster tasks and in the part of the field close to the Madrid rim.
Sergio Rodriguez. Outstanding: He continued his good form and was, by far, the player with the most spark moving the ball before the break. Then he gave another display. With 9 points in a row in two minutes of the last quarter that broke the game.
Edy Tavares. Outstanding: A colossus who already had 6 points and 6 rebounds in the first 7 minutes. He endured the foul problems well in the first half. In the third quarter he continued to crush the rival centers, with 10 minutes to go he added a double-double (16 + 10). In the last quarter it was a wall in defense. A memorable match that ended in a PIR of 38.
Sergio Lull. Approved: One of his triples on the horn gave Madrid air just before going to the locker room. In the second half he contributed to the distribution of the game (4 assists) and surpassed from the personal line the scoring record in the history of the Final Four.
Eli Ndiaye. Approved: Very good minutes from the youth squad player in the first quarter, when he started and it was Mirotic’s turn to defend, which he prevented from scoring. He even dared a mid-range shot from the baseline without a shake in his hand. After that he didn’t play again.
Dzanan Musa. Approved: Lost in the first half, forcing a lot and missing a lot too. In the second, something was intoned, although always with a point of precipitation.
