Underdog Murcia basketball team loses out on top spot to Real Madrid
Despite losing in the finals, the Murcia side just had their best season of all time
Real Madrid are the new ACB champions, having won the first three of the potential five final matches to take home the Spanish basketball league trophy.
They beat UCAM Murcia 73-84, though it was by no means a one-sided match. Murcia took an early lead in this third final and forced Real Madrid to come from behind, which they did, winning the top spot in the Endesa League.
By reaching the final, this was the very best season for UCAM Murcia in almost 40 years of club history, even though they lost out on becoming champions.
