Barça 100-82 Coviran Granada: Free scoring festival

Three wins out of three in the week for the blaugranes following a 100-82 win over Coviran Granada in the Palau Blaugrana in the league. Cory Higgins again led the scoring with an impressive 21 points followed by Kyle Kuric who picked up 14 points. 

Scoring start

Barça came out determined to make it a trio of wins in seven days and in the first quarter Saras Jasikevicius' team showed their intent with five from five three pointers to take a 35-18 lead after 10 minutes. 

In the second quarter Barça extended their lead with some excellent shooting stars, completing 23 of 30 form the field to lead 57-42 at half time. 

Advantage pressed home 

In the second half the pace eased off slightly but Barça maintained their dominance and at one point they led by 21 points at 71-50. Granada launched a comeback of sorts to take it to 78-66 but in the final quarter the blaugranes maintained their healthy advantage to win 100-82 ahead of Thursday's game in the Euroleague against Alba in Berlin.
