Joventut reached the final with Rudy infiltrated by a shoulder problem, and saw Girona start the final better, with (2-12) to start, and reaching the end of the first quarter ahead (16-21). But Girona’s resistance ended here, as their lights went out in attack, they were only able to score 6 and 10 points in the following quarters, so with 10 minutes to go before the final whistle, the match was already decided (58-37), with a Mallet smashing his rival’s hoop tirelessly.
