Real returns to the Final Four
Real offered a powerful performance at Menora Mivtachim Arena to defeat Maccabi and be the first team to get the pass to the Euroleague Final Four.

The Whites, confident after the second game in Madrid, were dominant most of the game as Llull was the visitors scoring leader with 18 points and Yabusele was Real's most valuable player with a 26 PIR.

Real Madrid was better from the start (6-12, min. 4) despite Wilbekin's accuracy early in the game. The Whites led 22-25 after the first ten minutes and improved to a 10 point advantage by halftime (41-51) thanks to a dynamic team game.

Maccabi came off the locker room strong trying to trim Real's margin for several runs but the guests always found a way to score. Llull, as impressive as on the series' game 1, closed the period with a 4 point spectacular play (61-73, min 30) as the hosts started to miss the game's trail.

Real Madrid was solid in the last quarter, facing Maccabi's comeback attempts with offensive effectiveness and defensive tough work. Laso's men succeeded to secure always a double-digit lead getting a final win, 76-87, that takes them to a new Final Four.
