Four games across ACB and NBA W produced three road wins and one tight home victory on 2026-10-17. The ACB slate leaned toward away-side control, with Unicaja, Breogan and Obradoiro CAB all pushing their hosts into difficult late-game math, though MoraBanc Andorra ultimately protected its home floor in the day’s highest-scoring matchup.
Unicaja sets the tone on the road
Unicaja delivered the most decisive ACB result of the day, beating Manresa 84-72 away from home. The 12-point margin stood out on a slate that also included a six-point overtime-style scoring environment in Andorra and a seven-point road win by Obradoiro CAB.
For Unicaja, the value of the result came from combining road scoring with enough defensive control to keep Manresa at 72 points. In a game without a 90-point pace, Unicaja created separation through possession quality and scoreline control rather than relying on a shootout.
MoraBanc Andorra survives Breogan in a 210-point game
MoraBanc Andorra beat Breogan 108-102 in the highest-scoring game of the day. The 210 combined points were well clear of every other matchup, with neither side able to fully suppress the other’s half-court production or transition opportunities.
The result was the only ACB home win on the slate. MoraBanc Andorra needed every part of its offensive output, because Breogan reached 102 points and still left without the win. That scoreline framed the game as a test of late-game execution more than defensive control.
Obradoiro CAB adds another ACB road win
Obradoiro CAB defeated San Pablo Burgos 79-72, giving the ACB slate another road winner. The seven-point margin placed the game between Unicaja’s more comfortable win and MoraBanc Andorra’s high-scoring survival.
Holding San Pablo Burgos to 72 points matched the defensive benchmark Manresa reached against Unicaja, but Obradoiro CAB’s 79 points were enough to turn that containment into a road result. In a lower-scoring environment, Obradoiro CAB’s ability to reach the high 70s created the necessary cushion.
Golden State Valkyries W edges Atlanta Dream W
Golden State Valkyries W beat Atlanta Dream W 68-64 in NBA W action, the lowest-scoring game of the day. The four-point margin also made it the tightest final score across the slate.
The game’s profile differed sharply from the ACB shootout in Andorra. Golden State Valkyries W won with 68 points, which put a premium on defensive possessions, late-clock execution and limiting Atlanta Dream W to 64 points.
