Solid win at Joventut Badalona (71-84)

Valencia Basket secured a solid victory on Joventut Badalona's court in Round 13 of the LF Endesa. The team dominated the game for more than 30 minutes with solid defense and good ball movement to build a comfortable lead, which reached 27 points, ensuring that the victory was never in danger despite a late comeback by the home team. It was a great effort considering the absences of Leticia Romero and Raquel Carrera, securing the ninth victory in the LF Endesa and leaving them 9-3 in the standings, with the postponed game against Casademont Zaragoza still to be played.

Rubén Burgos quotes

"We are satisfied with our 40 minutes, not only because of the result, which is always very difficult to achieve on this court, as we know from last season, the playoffs, and the regular season game, but also because at times I think we played very well as a team, we were very united, and we played good basketball. It's clear that it's not just relaxation. I think the team improved on defense in the last quarter, they got the ball in the paint and cut the lead. But it's a very long competition, I'm sure we'll see each other again, hopefully in the Cup. The playoffs are still a long way off, and we're happy to see the stands, our fans who have traveled here, leaving very early tomorrow from Valencia, the junior team, which is playing a tournament here in Badalona, and a very good basketball atmosphere this Sunday morning."
