Bad news for Baskonia ahead of an important EuroLeague battle.

By Eurohoops team / info@eurohoops.net

Baskonia beat Andorra 82 – 68 on the road for Round 29 of the Spanish ACB League but the win came at the cost of guard Pierria Henry’s injury

Henry hurt his right ankle eight minutes into the game and was forced to exit the floor, never to return. Baskonia is next playing a do-or-die game against fellow Spanish side Valencia for the last round of the EuroLeague regular season and will be eliminated from playoff contention with a loss.

Rokas Giedraitis led Baskonia overall vs. Andorra with 15 points, six rebounds and five assists while Tadas Sedekerskis had 14 points plus six rebounds and Alec Peters 13 points and six boards as well.

From Andorra, Jeremy Senglin scored 18 points and Bandja Sy 16. The hosts were up 23 – 21 at the end of the first quarter but Baskonia held them to 11 points in the second period to take a 34 – 36 halftime. The visiting squad dominated the game after the break, establishing a double-digit advantage.
