The team from Tenerife faces the decisive quarter-final match of the Basketball Champions League (BCL) with the firm intention of capitalizing on their home-court advantage, which they earned diligently during the Top 16. Their goal is to secure their coveted qualification for the Final Four to be held in Badalona.

Coach Txus Vidorreta was compelled to exclude Wesley Van Beck and Thomas Scrubb from the squad due to the competition's quota regulations. The game started with an intense pace, resulting in a 6-6 tie. However, La Laguna Tenerife, led by Abromaitis, took an early lead at 14-8, though the Turkish team quickly responded, leveling the score at 14-14.

A flurry of three-pointers from Mills and Jaime propelled the home team to a 20-14 lead. Subsequently, a 2+1 play by Gio extended their advantage to 22-14, prompting opposing coach Pozzecco to call a timeout. The first quarter concluded with a commanding 28-16 in favor of the Canarian squad.

The local team's formidable defense was pivotal, allowing La Laguna Tenerife to widen their lead to 35-19. They maintained an impressive defensive solidity, conceding only 28 points in 18 minutes and heading into halftime with a 46-28 score. This staunch defense frustrated the Turkish team, rendering them ineffective near the basket, which even resulted in a technical foul for Pozzecco. With this performance, Canarias saw their path to the Final Four in Badalona becoming increasingly clear.
