To celebrate the Centenary of its Basketball Federation, Catalunya organized a friendly game against Argentina, with Pablo Prigioni’s team winning the match between the two sides 94-88.
For Argentina, which didn’t manage to qualify for the 2023 FIBA World Cup, instead, were present several high-level players in Europe, such as Facundo Campazzo. The newest Real Madrid playmaker had 11 points and a wonderful dime to Lee Abraham Aaliya.
Lucio Redivo led the way with 21 points with 6/8 from beyond the arc. On the losing side, instead, former Barcelona veteran Pierre Oriola had a losing effort of 15 points with 4/4 at the free throw line, while both Lluis Costa and Gran Canaria’s Ferran Bassas scored 14 each.
Barcelona’s newest arrival Joel Parra, Joventut Badalona’s Pau Ribas, who scored 11 points, and BAXI Manresa’s Dani Perez were also present on the court of the Nou Congost.
