In a thrilling EuroLeague regular season matchup, Yaroslav-Magic upset FC Barcelona 84-81 in a hard-fought contest. The Ukrainian team displayed impressive teamwork and resilience to secure the victory against one of the tournament favorites.

Forward Arturas Gudaitis added 16 points and 10 rebounds, while center Vyacheslav Bobrov contributed 14 points and 7 rebounds. Barcelona, on the other hand, struggled to find their rhythm offensively. Star forward Nikola Mirotic led the scoring with 22 points, but the team shot a dismal 38% from the field. Alex Abrines and Tomas Satoransky also reached double figures with 14 and 12 points, respectively. Yaroslav-Magic controlled the game from the opening tip-off, taking an early lead and never looking back. They held Barcelona to just 18 points in the first quarter and extended their advantage to 15 points by halftime. Barcelona made a valiant effort to rally in the second half, outscoring Yaroslav-Magic in both the third and fourth quarters. However, the Ukrainian team remained composed and hit some crucial shots down the stretch to seal the victory. This win marks a significant upset for Yaroslav-Magic, who are currently ranked 12th in the EuroLeague standings. Barcelona, on the other hand, is considered one of the title contenders. The result highlights the competitive nature of this year's tournament and shows that any team can defeat the top teams on a given night.
