The Bilbao Basket reserve team will wrap up its participation in the first edition of the Liga U this Friday. The squad, led by Mikel Torre, will host Granada at Artxanda starting at 7:45 PM, in the final matchday of Group B within the second phase.
Currently, the Biscayan team holds the sixth position in the standings, with a record of five wins and six losses. However, their final standing will depend on the outcome of this match and those of several direct rivals. It is already impossible for them to finish in the top two spots, which grant access to the play-in for the final phase of the title, already secured by Valencia Basket and Bàsquet Girona.
Bilbao Basket will finish in third place if they win their match and UCAM Murcia, their last sporting victim, also wins. They will finish fourth if they win and Amara Lleida also wins, or if they lose, the Catalan team wins, and Unicaja also loses. They will be fifth if both Amara Lleida and the Malaga team win, and finally, they could also be sixth if they lose and Murcia wins.
The Biscayan team has shown a remarkable performance in the debut of this competition. In the first phase, they finished fourth in their group with a balance of six victories and an equal number of defeats. Furthermore, players like Urko Madariaga and Oier Pérez have had excellent performances, both ranking among the top ten players with the best valuation in the competition, while Bingen Errasti, Kepa de Castro, or Aimar Mintegui, in addition to the center, have also had the opportunity to play minutes with Surne Bilbao in the FIBA Europe Cup and the Liga Endesa.
