The fourth official duel of the course, which It was the one for Madrid’s home debut 105 days after winning the League and the first without Pablo Laso at the Wizink Center, closed with a white victory (93-79), like the previous three, but this time it was not necessary to reach the outcome for the balance to be decided, not even at the knot. From the introduction, Madrid defined what was going to happen with a conclusive 29-13 in 11 minutes. He gutted the story. Before, the Berserkers, the majority merengue basketball entertainment group, recognized Laso’s enormous work with a banner (“thanks legend”, it read) and showed their support for Chus Mateo in another. To close, ovations to Musa (22 points) and to the recently operated Rudy, and debut of the youth squad Hugo González with 16 years, 7 months and 27 daysonly behind Doncic, Roberto Núñez and Usman Garuba.

The Monbus Obradoiro could not rebuild the first quarter, despite trying in the second and later. The duel had been seen for sentence with the 27-12 of the opening act, where we saw good collective minutes, of passing game, with Chacho in command, but with Yabusele also giving up to three assists. Causeur was fine and the quick incorporation of Poirier (due to a blow Tavares received in the face) contributed three baskets in a cascade, and then a fourth, without Rubén Guerrero being able to hold him (Blazevic soon entered), although always after situations of advantage generated for the team.
With 16 down, the Obra put together a reaction. Two three-pointers by Vicedo (1 of 6 by Moncho Fernández in the first quarter), a better defensive level, the intensity of Thomas Scrubb and the fact that the Whites changed the team for the individual, lifted a partial 4-10 (33-23 ). And that’s where the rebellion came. LIn response, a 9-0 with seven free throws and Musa in charge. In the previous merengue jam he had enough to do that he missed his six attempted triples in that stretch after the 4 of 5 with which he started.
After the break, Obra wanted to give themselves another chance after 57-37 and closed a very offensive third quarter by taking the win in the period (26-30). The five triples without failure between Westermann and the Scrubb brothers signed that little scoring festival. Tavares and, especially, Musa raised the difference again in the last quarter. The Bosnian, shy until then, added 14 points on seven shots in six minutes to finish with 22. Change with the job done and applause from the stands to their new star. And Rudy Fernández, present, with his recently operated right hand.
The four signings (add Sergio Rodríguez, back six years later, Hezonja and Cornellie) had made their debut in the first nine minutes of the duel. In the final moments, Eli Ndiaye and Hugo González came out, who officially debuted at 16 years, 7 months and 27 days, behind only by months, even days, of Doncic, Núñez and Garuba. All of them also premiered at the age of 16. At 3:08 the forward had time to celebrate with a basket and two free throws without fail. A happy day for him and a calm one for Madrid.
