Unicaja cannot beat Barça on its return to Carpena (70-79)

Unicaja could not overcome Barça on its return to Carpena more than six months after its last official game. Luis Casimiro's team was very aggressive on both sides of the court and maintained the initiative during most of game, but the flashes of inspired Nikola Mirotic (24 points, 29 PIR) and Álex Abrines (21 poinrs) in the final strech ended up deciding the game for the Catalan team. Darío Brizuela, with 17 points, was the top scorer on the Unicaja, who had Gal Mekel as its best man (9 points, 6 assists, 18 PIR).
