Baxi Manresa suffered a crushing 97-60 defeat against Barça at the Palau Blaugrana this February, marking a difficult end to their schedule before the Copa del Rey break.

Despite an early lead fueled by Reyes, the team from Manresa was overwhelmed by Barça's defensive pressure. Foul trouble for Pierre Oriola and a lack of interior presence allowed the home side to take full control of the game, leading to a significant scoring gap by halftime.
The second half saw the lead grow to over 30 points as Diego Ocampo's squad struggled to find the basket. With the FIBA international window approaching, the team will have three weeks to regroup and address the issues shown during this performance.
