Unicaja's point guard suffered an injury last night during the BCL game against Joventut. Upon the team's return to Málaga, he underwent an MRI at Quirónsalud Málaga Hospital, which revealed a muscle injury that will sideline him for three to four weeks.
Unicaja returns to Catalonia this weekend, where they will face BAXI Manresa this Sunday at 12:00 PM (broadcasted by DAZN and Unicaja Baloncesto Radio, live from Le Grand Café Centro). The team will be visiting a court where they haven't fared particularly well in recent seasons.
Unicaja suffered their first defeat of the season in the BCL, falling to Joventut Badalona 71-66. In a game decided in the final minute, the team had chances to win, but last-minute baskets from Tomic and Hunt proved decisive. Duarte was the team's best player (12 points, 3 rebounds, 15 PIR). With this result, Unicaja's 14-game winning streak in the competition comes to an end; they hadn't lost since March 5, 2025, against Galatasaray.

It will be a game between the only two undefeated teams in the BCL.
