BAXI Manresa obtained the fifteenth victory of the season after winning by the minimum on the court of Bàsquet Girona (83-84). The Manresans dominated from the beginning but were about to let the game slip away in the final seconds, when a basket by Badio and great defense by Travanté prevented it. In this way, Bages' team continues to have a good dynamic of results: they added the third consecutive victory and chained the fourth consecutive victory away from home.

After a few first moments with alternatives and exchange of baskets by both teams, the visitors scored three three-pointers in a row and opened a gap on the scoreboard (11-20). The home team reacted and got closer to just one point before a new escape from Pedro Martínez's team (25-30).

In the second quarter, the team from Girona came out better and managed to come back and take the lead (40-37). However, the team from Manresa did not get nervous and scored eleven consecutive points to be eight ahead (40-48), a difference that was cut to six at halftime (46-52).

Returning from the locker room, Bages' team continued to dominate and enjoyed a maximum difference of fourteen points. At the end of the third quarter, the visitors had the game very well underway (60-73).

In the last ten minutes, it seemed that Bages' team were solid and would close the game without too much suffering (69-82 after just over three minutes), but the home team had not said the last word and, thanks to a strong partial 14-0, they took the lead in the last eighteen seconds. In these, a basket by Badio and great defense by Travanté sealed a fifteenth victory that was more difficult than expected.

On Sunday starting at 12:30 BAXI Manresa will once again play away from Nou Congost, this time on the complicated court of Real Madrid, the leader of the Endesa League.
