Bàsquet Girona didn’t need a perfect night — it needed one decisive stretch. It found it coming out of halftime, ripping control of the game with a 26-16 third quarter and riding that margin to a 91-84 win over Granada on Saturday, April 4, 2026 at Palacio de Deportes.

The result pushes Girona’s season forward at 12-13, while Granada, already buried at 3-22, let another winnable home game slip after showing real fight on both sides of the break.

How the game swung

The opening quarter set the tone: Girona came out organized and efficient enough to grab a 24-21 lead after 10 minutes. Granada responded with its best stretch before halftime, winning the second quarter 22-18 to take a 43-42 advantage into the locker room.

Then the game tilted hard. Girona’s third-quarter surge flipped a one-point deficit into a double-digit cushion. That 26-16 frame wasn’t just a scoring spike — it was the possession-by-possession separator that Granada never fully recovered from.

Closing time: Granada’s late push falls short

Granada didn’t fold. It won the fourth quarter 25-23 and made Girona work through the finish, but the math never changed: the third-quarter gap was too steep. Girona kept enough control late to prevent the game from turning into a true one-possession scramble.

Ball movement and execution

Neither team’s shooting splits were available, but the assist counts point to the shape of the game. Girona finished with 19 assists to Granada’s 17 — a modest edge, yet one that fits the story of Girona generating cleaner looks during its decisive third-quarter run.

What it means going forward

For Girona, the win is a practical road result: survive a halftime deficit, win the swing quarter, and bank a needed victory to stay on track at 12-13. For Granada, now 3-22, the formula for an upset was there for 20 minutes — it led at halftime and won two quarters — but the third-quarter collapse underlined how thin the margin is when execution slips for even a short window.
