Este jueves ha sido presentado el III Memorial Javier Imbroda, que será el primer partido del Unicaja de la era Txus Vidorreta y que medirá al equipo frente al Melilla Baloncesto el domingo 30 agosto en el Pabellón Javier Imbroda a partir de las 20:00 horas. Al igual que en la edición anteriores, el Unicaja Mijas también abrirá su pretemporada en el mismo escenario ante el Melilla Ciudad del Deporte La Salle, aunque lo hará el más tarde, el domingo 13 de septiembre a las 18:00 horas.

The Carpena is the venue for the start of this new chapter for Unicaja. This Thursday, the team coached by Txus Vidorreta began their pre-season training for the 2026/27 season. The Basque coach had the full squad at his disposal, with the exception of Amine Noua, who is on international duty with the French national team. Players from Unicaja Alhaurín de la Torre in the Liga U will also be helping out during these first few days.

Unicaja’s new player was presented to the media on Thursday in the Martín Carpena press room. The American shooting guard emphasised how easy it was to decide to join Málaga, as he wants to “compete for every title, and that’s where I want to be”.

Unicaja’s revamped roster attended its traditional press breakfast at Hospital Quirónsalud Málaga, the official medical provider for Unicaja Baloncesto for the past fifteen years. Txus Vidorreta, Alberto Díaz, Melwin Pantzar, and Dr. Miguel Marcos—Medical Director of Quirónsalud Málaga Hospital and Head of Medical Services for Unicaja Baloncesto—spoke with the press after the medical examinations were completed.

Following the medical exam at Quirón Salud Málaga Hospital, Unicaja’s new head coach, Txus Vidorreta, offered his initial thoughts ahead of the start of preseason, discussing the roster, the upcoming training sessions, and the start of the season.
