FC Barcelona didn’t have any trouble recording a 10th straight win in the ACB League, as Sarunas Jasikevicius players defeated CB Breogan 82-54 in Round 20.
Nicolas Laprovittola led the Catalan team to their 17th victory with 16 points, three assists, and rebounds in 20 minutes spent on the court.
Nikola Mirotic followed him with 12 points, while Rokas Jokubaitis added eight with six assists, and Mike Tobey seven points with ten rebounds.
The match was also marked by the return of Barcelona’s Sergi Martinez, who came back to the court after being out for more than four months due to an injury.

For the losing side who scored more than 13 points only in the final quarter, Toni Nakic was the only player in double figures with 10 points.
Everything was over for the guests after three quarters, since Barca had a huge 58-37 lead.
Jasikevicius’ squad improved to 17-4, and stayed at the top of the standings, while Breogan has a 10-10 score and despite the tough loss is still in contention for the playoff.
Copa del Rey now awaits Barcelona, where they will face Unicaja in the quarter-finals (16/02). If the Catalan team wins, they will face Real Madrid or Valencia in the semifinal.
