Leyma Coruña Overwhelms Estudiantes and Turns Coliseum Into a Celebration (105-82)

There are nights when everything flows. The ball goes in, energy multiplies, and the opponent gets trapped in an unstoppable dynamic. That's exactly what happened at the Coliseum, where Leyma Coruña delivered one of its most complete performances of the season to clearly defeat Movistar Estudiantes, hampered by absences.

The opening set the tone immediately. Intensity from the start, high pace, and quick offensive decisions. Leyma didn't hesitate: they attacked the rim from the first possession and found their best ally in three-point shooting. Guillem Jou began punishing from beyond the arc and the team, comfortable in transition, opened up a lead quickly. Within minutes the gap was already in double figures and the game was heading in the direction that favors the Coruña side most.

The key wasn't just accuracy, but variety. When Estudiantes tried to close out on the three-pointer, layups to the rim and offensive rebounding dominance appeared. When they tightened the paint, the ball came back out with precision to the perimeter. Dídac Cuevas controlled the pace with good judgment and Joe Cremo converted every space given into points. The halftime score (59-33) summed up the imbalance.

After the break, far from easing up, Leyma kept their foot on the accelerator. Jou reached outstanding numbers from three-point range, becoming the offensive reference point of an almost perfect shooting night from distance. Estudiantes tried to react with defensive adjustments and greater aggression, but local confidence was at its peak. Each basket reinforced the sense of superiority.

The final quarter served to round out the collective effort. There were rotations, shared minutes, and widespread contributions. The team surpassed the 100-point mark to applause and closed the game with a comfortable lead (105-82) that strengthens their candidacy in the upper standings.
