Unicaja was unable to secure a victory against Real Madrid in a game that served as a prelude to their Copa del Rey clash next Thursday in Valencia (92-96). In a thrilling, back-and-forth game, the team's lack of depth in the final stretch proved costly against an opponent that capitalized on its superior shooting accuracy and physical dominance in the closing minutes to snatch a win in the final seconds. Emir Sulejmanovic was the team's standout player tonight (18 points, 3 rebounds, 19 PIR).

Unicaja Mijas secured its seventeenth victory of the season after beating Bosonit Unibasket in a match that was decided after the break thanks to outstanding defensive work by the Malaga team. The home team conceded only 14 points in the entire second half and closed out the game with authority (70-47), securing their fifth consecutive win to remain in contention for the top spots.

Unicaja coach Ibon Navarro assesses the difficult game this Sunday at the Carpena against Real Madrid (7:00 PM, broadcasted by DAZN and Unicaja Baloncesto Radio). The coach reveals that, in addition to the already known absences, Chase Audige is also unavailable, and Olek Balcerowski is doubtful for a match that will be repeated four days later in the Copa del Rey.

The Liga Endesa game between Unicaja and Real Madrid this coming Sunday, February 15th, at 7:00 PM, will be dedicated to the Fundación Unicaja. The Foundation will carry out various activities in the Fan Zone before the game and will present its charitable donations at halftime to four associations, helping them realize their social projects. In addition, there will be a contest with the winner receiving a place at the Fundación Unicaja Basketball Camp.

This Saturday, February 14 (5:30 p.m., broadcast on Canal FEB), Unicaja Mijas welcomes Bosonit Unibasket to Los Guindos, one of only three teams to have beaten the Malaga side in the 2025/26 season. Javi Pérez de los Reyes's team is approaching this match with extra motivation to avoid a repeat of the outcome of the first round.
