Resistance exercise without reward against Real Madrid (86-85)

16/02/2023

The Taronja team was in tow from the beginning with a set against at the end of the first quarter and came to see themselves down 16 at the start of the second, but they improved their defensive performance and found some success to arrive alive at halftime. Led by Jones and Harper, they got within two in the third quarter and then cut back to that distance a couple more times, but didn't manage to turn it around until the last three minutes. In the final seconds, a penetration by Jones failed to seal a victory that would have meant a pass to the semis.
