Regular Season Round 23: Cartagena - Gipuzkoa 81-73

Date: March 8, 2025
Very predictable result when eighth ranked Cartagena (12-11) won against at home 14th ranked Gipuzkoa (7-16) 81-73 on Saturday. Cartagena made 18-of-21 free shots (85.7 percent) during the game. They also forced 19 Gipuzkoa turnovers. It was an exceptional evening for American-Nigerian forward Stephen Ugochukwu (201-1996, college: McNeese St.) who led the winners and scored 19 points. Guard Alejandro Jorda (193-1995, college: Cuesta JC) accounted for 9 points for the winning side. Ugochukwu is a former Eurobasket Summer League player, which is considered top international summer league in the market. Canadian-Croatian power forward Josip Vrankic (206-1998, college: Santa Clara) came up with 24 points and 9 rebounds (on 8-of-10 shooting from the field) and American guard Daishon Smith (185-1995, college: ULM) added 15 points respectively for Gipuzkoa in the defeat. Both coaches allowed to play bench players saving starting five for next games. The victory was the third consecutive win for Cartagena. Newly promoted Cartagena maintains eighth place with 12-11 record. Gipuzkoa lost their fifth game in a row. They keep the fourteenth position with 16 games lost. They share it with Valladolid and Castello. Cartagena will meet higher ranked Palencia (#5) on the road in the next round and it will be quite challenging to get another victory. Gipuzkoa will play against Valladolid (#15) and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
