Giant Zone: The Madness of Baskonia at the King’s Cup
Guess what? Baskonia just snagged the title of King of the Basketball Cup 2026! Talk about a wild ride! In a nail-biter against Real Madrid, they cruised to victory with a score of 100 to 89. Can you believe it?!
This victory wasn’t just any win; it was like a fairy tale! It marked Baskonia’s first trip to the finals since 2009 and their seventh Copa del Rey title. Everyone thought they were underdogs, but they proved the doubters wrong big time!
Now, let’s talk about the stars of the show! Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot lit up the court with a spectacular 28 points and a jaw-dropping 32 efficiency rating. And let’s not forget about Omoruyi, who also brought his A-game with 23 points. Together, they played like they were possessed!
But the real MVP of the day? That would be Trent Forrest. This guy was a walking highlight reel, nearly pulling off a triple-double with 22 points, 9 rebounds, and 11 assists. His performance racked up a phenomenal 38 efficiency rating!
Paolo Galbiatti’s squad has bounced back to the top in this one-of-a-kind tournament, and it feels good! In our latest video recap hosted by the dynamic duo, Sergio Vegas and Gerard Solé, we dive into all the epic highs and cringeworthy lows from this basketball extravaganza straight from Valencia.
So grab your popcorn, sit back, and enjoy the madness of the King’s Cup!
