Valencia Basket closes 2024 by hosting Hiopos Lleida for the first time at Fonteta

29/12/2024

Valencia Basket men’s team will close the year 2024 at home, facing Hiopos Lleida for the first time in its ACB history (Monday, December 30, 18:00h, Fonteta, Movistar Deportes) in a game that starts the Liga Endesa round 14.

 

This match will again raise awareness of the needs of those affected by the DANA from October 29 and highlight initiatives to solve related issues through "15 matches, 15 initiatives."

 

The Valencia team will try to maintain its strong home performance in the national competition after ending their winning streak on Friday in Gran Canaria. The Taronja squad will aim for a victory that could secure their spot in the 2025 Copa del Rey, though this goal also depends on results in other arenas.

 

In a matchup between the two teams that use and convert the most three-pointers in this competition, accuracy from the outside line is expected to be a key factor in this unprecedented game. It will be the return of a team from this city to the Fonteta after more than 20 years, as the last visit from the former Lleida Bàsquet was in November 2004.

 

Valencia Basket remains first in the Liga Endesa with a 10-3 record.
