Valencia beat Baskonia behind Sorts for their third straight win

Valencia Basket defeated Baskonia 84-75 in an away ACB League game. The home side kept their advantage over their opponent and with this result earned their third straight win. In their previous matches they had beaten Murcia 116-93 and Paris 93-104. Valencia's recent form shows the team has found some consistency.

The most decisive player for the side was T.J. Sorts. He stood out as the game's key name with 18 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists. Sorts' experience and composed play gave the team an important balance against the opponent's pressure. Neal Sako recorded a double-double with 15 points and 10 rebounds.

For Baskonia, D.J. Stewart was the top scorer with 19 points. E.J. Lawson added 11 points and 8 rebounds, while Kenneth Faried posted 9 points and 8 rebounds. However, the visitors struggled to stop Valencia's discipline and the tempo increase in the second half. Baskonia's recent defeat to Panathinaikos in Euroleague also appears to have affected the team's morale.

With this win, Valencia moved to a 3-2 record in the ACB. The team will face Fenerbahce and Barcelona in Euroleague next week. Baskonia will travel to Real Madrid in the league, followed by a game against Villeurbanne. Both teams have a busy schedule ahead in the coming weeks.
