Girona – Real Madrid 88-94: spoiled Marc Gasol’s Liga Endesa return party
Mario Hezonia excelled as he led Real Madrid to a 94-88 away win over Girona on Marc Gasol’s return to the Liga Endesa.
Girona had plenty of excitement due to a return to Endesa Liga and the presence of Marc Gasol in the starting XI, Real Madrid didn’t fall into the trap. The “Queen” won (94-88) in the Liga Endesa premiere, with Mario Hezonia remembering his good self and doing irreparable damage to the newcomers’ defence.
In addition to “Super Mario” (23 points with 5/7 threes, plus 7 rebounds), Gershon Yabusele (17 points, 6 rebounds) and Dzanan Moussa (15 points, 4 assists) made themselves felt in the opposing defense.
Kino Colom (last year at AEK) offered 7 points and 2 assists in Girona, with Marc Gasol making his presence felt – and then more – ending the evening on 20 points (with 1/5 two-pointers, 3/3 Three pointer and 9/11 shots, 6 rebounds, 7 assists and 1 block in 24’53”.
The “Queen” will play Obradeiro at home in four days before the EuroLeague begins with the game against Panathinaikos in OAKA.
THE DECADES: 20-17, 36-45, 57-69, 88-94.
