Unicaja Baloncesto: Champions Once More—and Chasing History

Unicaja Baloncesto is on fire. The Málaga-based basketball club has just secured its second consecutive Basketball Champions League (BCL) title, beating Turkish powerhouse Galatasaray 83-67 in a dominant final performance in Athens. With this win, they’ve now claimed four major trophies this season—an almost unheard-of feat in modern basketball.

The team, coached by the impressive Ibon Navarro, has grown into a European juggernaut since 2022. This latest victory adds to their wins in the FIBA Intercontinental Cup, Spanish Supercopa, and Copa del Rey, putting them just one trophy away from a historic quintuple. That final piece of the puzzle? The Liga ACB championship—Spain’s fiercely competitive domestic league.

Star guard Tyson Carter led the charge in the BCL final, dropping 14 points and grabbing MVP honors. He was backed by sharp shooting from Tyler Kalinoski and Kendrick Perry, helping Unicaja pull away and seal the deal with confidence.

Now sitting fourth in the ACB standings, Unicaja is gearing up for a playoff run that could cement this season as the greatest in the club’s history. From dark horses to title collectors, they’ve become a case study in elite team-building, strong coaching, and next-level hunger.

Unicaja is no longer just a respected name in Spanish hoops—they're a European force rewriting their own story.
And the chapter titled “Quintuple” might just be next.
