Lenovo Tenerife starts strong and Coviran Granada celebrates its return with victory

MADRID, 29 Sep. (EUROPA PRESS) -

Lenovo Tenerife started the 2022-2023 Endesa League season strongly this Thursday, adding a resounding away victory against BAXI Manresa (70-89), while Coviran Granada celebrated its return with an agonizing victory (81-83). ) against Carplus Fuenlabrada, in matches corresponding to the first day of the competition.

The team from Tenerife, one of those that wants to be in the group of candidates to be at the top of the table, did not even miss a key player like the Georgian Giorgi Shermadini and dominated Pedro Martínez's team from start to finish, those who submitted from the defense and a very successful start.

Lenovo Tenerife fine-tuned its wrist from the three-point line and with its five three-pointers, two from Aaron Doornekamp and another two from Elgin Cook, it took a lead that not only would not let go but also expanded thanks to its defensive work that reduced the team from Manresa to 29 points at the break (29-43).

Those of Txus Vidorreta did not loosen after passing through the changing rooms and went over 20 points ahead, a distance that was already insurmountable for the locals who could never disturb a rival who did not suffer their 16 losses either.

For his part, the recently promoted Coviran Granada celebrated his return to the ACB with a valuable victory at the Fernando Martín against a theoretical rival to avoid permanence such as Carplus Fuenlabrada, whom he beat 81-83.

The team from Fuenlabrada was not able to take advantage of the fact that it came to dominate by more than 14 points and the Andalusian, more in tune in the second half at an offensive level (48 points), was cutting back and ended up taking the victory thanks to a triple when there was little more than a second of Luke Maye.

In addition, the Río Breogán also won a home victory, which assaulted an always complicated field like the Palacio de Deportes de Murcia where they beat UCAM with some comfort by 70-84, led by the American pivot Ethan Happ, author of a ' double-double' (19 points and 11 rebounds).

Despite the final score, the game did not end up leaning towards the Lugo side until the final quarter. Thus, with six minutes to go, the match was tied (60-61) when the figure of Sergio García appeared to sign eleven points, with three triples, and break the match in favor of his team.

Finally, there was also a lot of equality in the Fontes do Sar between two other teams destined in principle to fight to avoid relegation such as Monbus Obradoiro and Casademont Zaragoza, who opted for the local side narrowly by 76-73.

The Galician team almost always took the initiative on the scoreboard thanks to their good starts to the game (21-11) and after the break (50-39), which gave them an advantage that they knew how to manage despite the attempts of the visiting team that never came closer to three points. Three newcomers to the Endesa League, Marcus Page (17 points) and Dragan Bender (16 points), in the Obradoirista side, and Howard Sant-Ross (15), in the hand, were the best.
