Anosike powers Real Betis to win over Euroleague club Malaga
On Sunday, Real Betis earned a much-needed victory in outstanding fashion. The team was able to hold off Euroleague power Unicaja Malaga 89-88 behind O.D. Anosike’s 12 points, 12 rebounds and 3 assists.
“Obviously at this point of the season, every win is important” said Anosike. “But when you’re able to beat a team of Malaga’s caliber, it does so much more for your confidence and morale. We hope we can continue to play like that for the rest of the season because tonight showed how talented of a group we really are.”
With the win, Real Betis inches closer to avoiding relegation with a record of 6-18. For Malaga, they still stand squarely in the playoff picture at 14-10. Real Betis returns to action on Easter Sunday at Fuenlabrada.
