The ACB regular season continues with Matchday 30, missing Unicaja Málaga and La Laguna Tenerife, who were eliminated in the semifinals of the Basketball Champions League Final Four. Barcelona hosts San Pablo Burgos, while Real Madrid welcomes Río Breogán.
**Real Madrid 97-101 Río Breogán** – A stunning upset at the Movistar Arena, as Breogán becomes only the third team to win in Madrid this season, following Barcelona and La Laguna Tenerife. Madrid entered the game with their Final Four ticket secured after beating Hapoel Tel Aviv 3-1, and with the top spot in the regular season already clinched. Coach Scariolo rotated heavily, and the visitors took full advantage. The final moments were controversial: Trey Lyle scored a basket with a foul that would have given Madrid the win, but Casimiro called for a video review. Officials ruled the contact occurred before the shot. Lyle made the first free throw and intentionally missed the second, but the play ended with Breogán at the line. Andric converted both free throws to seal the victory. The first quarter featured Balkan flair, with Hezonja leading Madrid while Andric and Brankovic countered for Breogán. In the second, Procida, Abalde, and Maledon stretched the lead, but an extraordinary Cook, alongside Russell and Brankovic, kept Breogán within three at halftime (46-43). The third quarter saw a scoring flurry, with Dibba and Apic giving Lugo the lead despite three-pointers from Llull and Hezonja. In the final period, Mavra and Brankovic ensured the win despite late efforts from Feliz and Llull. Top scorers for Madrid: Sergio Llull (20 points, 21 rating), Alex Len (17+6, 26 rating), Mario Hezonja (16+5, 21 rating). For Breogán: Aleksandar Arinatovic (19 points), Dominik Mavra (16), DeWayne Russell (11).
**Valencia Basket 86-88 Baskonia** – Baskonia triumphed in a spectacular game at the Roig Arena, marred by pre-match controversy that ultimately faded. The visitors secured a crucial road win.
**MoraBanc Andorra 104-94 BAXI Manresa** – Andorra kept their survival hopes alive with a vital victory, now tied on nine wins and 21 losses with Casademont Zaragoza, Dreamland Gran Canaria, and San Pablo Burgos in the relegation zone. Artem Pustovyi led the early charge (19-12), but Manresa fought back to 29-28. A 11-1 run in the second quarter, fueled by strong defense, Pustovyi’s paint dominance, and Shannon Evans’ scoring, gave Andorra control. After the break, Sir’Jabari Rice and Pustovyi extended the lead, but a 1-8 run by Ferran Bassas and Álex Reyes brought Manresa back. Andorra responded with an 11-2 burst, and despite a 0-8 start to the fourth quarter, their three-point shooting sealed the win.
