Regular Season Round 23: Rio Breogan - Zaragoza 71-87

Date: March 19, 2023
Worth to mention about the upset in a game between Rio Breogan (11-12) and Zaragoza (8-15), which took place in Lugo. Higher ranked Rio Breogan lost at home to fourteenth ranked Zaragoza 71-87 on Sunday. It was an exceptional evening for Serbian guard Stefan Jovic (198-1990, agency: BeoBasket) who led the winners and scored 18 points, 6 assists and 5 steals. Nigerian forward Christian Mekowulu (205-1995, college: Texas A&M) accounted for 14 points for the winning side. Mekowulu is a former Eurobasket Summer League player, which is considered top international summer league in the market. Four Zaragoza players scored in double figures. American power forward Ethan Happ (208-1996, college: Wisconsin) came up with a double-double by scoring 23 points and 12 rebounds (on 10-of-13 shooting from the field) and Kosovan-American Scott Bamforth (188-1989, college: Weber St., agency: BeoBasket) added 9 points and 4 assists respectively for Rio Breogan in the defeat. Both coaches allowed to play bench players saving starting five for next games. Zaragoza moved-up to thirteenth place, which they share with Girona. Loser Rio Breogan keeps the ninth position with 12 games lost. They share it with Obradoiro. Zaragoza will meet at home higher ranked Valencia (#8) in the next round and it will be quite challenging to get another victory. Rio Breogan will play against Obradoiro in Santiago de Compostela and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
