One of the most anticipated games of ACB Round 29 ended at halftime.
Asisa Joventut and Unicaja were facing off at the Olimpic de Badalona, and the match had to be suspended before the second half could resume. The game, which was scheduled to start at 6 pm Spanish time, was already delayed several minutes due to unforeseen problems with the electronic equipment in the arena.
Joventut dominated the first half (53-33), proving far superior to Ibon Navarro’s team. Both Henri Drell and Jabari Parker were punishing Unicaja’s defense before halftime.
Before the start of the second half, and as announced by the ACB itself, the game was suspended because the technical problem with the electronic elements of the pavilion could not be definitively fixed. At the moment, it is unknown when it will be played again, and the score is 53-33 in favor of Joventut.
Kyle Kuric hit a crucial game-winner in Tenerife (89-90). MoraBanc Andorra is at the bottom of the standings and needed the away win against Vidorreta’s team.
