Unicaja had a strong finish at the Euroleague Basketball Nike International Junior Tournament by downing Alba Berlin 62-74 in Group B in the Velodrom on Saturday. Unicaja was second in Group B with a 2-1 record. Despite leaving a good impression in this tournament, Alba was the only team that did not record a win at the 2009 Nike IJT. Jose Pozas paced the winners with 16 points. Rafael Lima and Augusto Lima each added 13 for Unicaja. Lima also grabbed 12 rebounds for a double-double. Malte Ziegenhagen had 16 points for Alba while Niels Giffey added 11. Alba used a 15-2 run that Dawit Villarzu capped with free throws to get a 25-18 margin after 10 minutes. Unicaja quickly improved its defense, allowing just 6 points in the second quarter. Meanwhile, Freire and an unstoppable Pozas helped their team to get the lead, 31-37, at halftime. Lima took over late in the third period, as Unicaja made it a 12-point game, 41-53, after 30 minutes. A three-pointer by Ziegenhagen brought Alba as close as 55-60 but Pozas, Freire and Tautvydas Sabonis - whose father Arvydas is an European basketball legend - stepped up to make Unicaja seal the outcome minutes before the final buzzer.
