Diego Ocampo's squad is striving to re-enter the race for the top 8 after a challenging period. The team is positioned mid-table, competing with Bilbao and Barcelona. Their recent match against Manresa was a breath of fresh air for Baskonia. The players showcased resilience and the ability to handle pressure, which was crucial in their victory (82:80).
Chima Moneke and Markus Howard remain pivotal figures in the attack. Both players are in good form and ready to take on responsibility in the upcoming match. Baskonia traditionally plays with more confidence on their home court, which could be a significant factor in the upcoming clash with Real Madrid.
