Baskonia Vitoria-Gasteiz
Baskonia Vitoria suffered a 93-79 home defeat to Dubai Basketball in their EuroLeague Round 5 clash, struggling to contain the visitors after a competitive first half.
Tadas Sedekerskis led Baskonia with 13 points on an efficient 5-of-6 shooting, while AJ Lawson added 12 points and Chris Duarte contributed 11 points, seven rebounds and four assists.
Offensively, Baskonia shot 62.1% from the two point range, but just shot 30% from the three point line. Defensively, they edged Dubai 33-32 on the boards, but their poor perimeter defense and 15 turnovers proved costly down the line.
Baskonia’s interior efficiency was respectable, but their inability to protect possession and limit Dubai’s scoring opportunities proved costly. The defeat highlighted the need for better perimeter execution and defensive consistency moving forward.
