Real Madrid beats Crvena Zvezda 105–84 with 17 three-pointers

Real Madrid beat Crvena Zvezda 105–84 in Round 11 of the EuroLeague in Madrid.

Madrid scored 38 points in the first quarter and made 17 of its 36 three-point attempts.

The win came against the league’s stingiest defense, which had allowed fewer points per game than any other team.

Crvena Zvezda cut a 24-point deficit to seven in the second quarter, but Madrid led by 15 at halftime and by 23 after the third.

Timothé Luwawu-Cabarrot scored 22 points, while Gabriele Procida added 19 and Nick Smith Jr. scored 13.

Madrid won without five players, including Facundo Campazzo and Gabriel Deck, and Martínez said the team had enough depth to cope.

He said the team needed everyone because it plays many games, but the sources do not say what comes next.
