The Game Development

Throughout each of the periods, everything was even; every time the Condors gained a slight advantage, Sabalero closed the gap, especially with the drive and scoring of Hans Feder Ponce, the top scorer of the night with 27 points.

However, the home team always finished the quarters much better. In the first, they accelerated towards the end with Conti leading and quick transitions that ended in baskets, going into the first short break at 26-21.

In the second quarter, Guillermo Tasso put Santiago Ibarra on the court, and the power forward gradually started heating up with perimeter shots, extending the lead. But Colón did not give up their game, once again with Feder Ponce, they got back into the game, tying it with a Fernández triple. But once again, Jujuy Básquet was effective, pulled ahead on the scoreboard, and finished the first half 57-48.

In the third quarter, the home team took the lead early on, but Colón kept the distance, with a partial score of 10-8. Leandro Spies, Colón's coach, called a timeout, reorganized, and upon returning, they improved their scoring, but the locals remained sharp in finishing.

In the last quarter, the team from Santa Fe closed the gap on the scoreboard beyond the start with a Nesman triple. Conti left the field with an unsportsmanlike foul, and the situation seemed to complicate for the Jujuy team with six minutes remaining. The lead was maintained, points and errors were exchanged, but in the end, two accurate perimeter shots gave Jujuy Básquet enough breathing room to seal the victory 96-83.

It was the last home game for the Condors, as they will close the year next Sunday visiting Fusión Riojana and on Tuesday against Amancay.
