Colombian Professional Basketball dresses up tonight with the start of the Grand Final, an electrifying confrontation that will measure Paisas against Cimarrones.
The first game of the series, agreed to the best of five, will take place this Thursday, December 4 at 7:00 pm at the Iván de Bedout Coliseum in Medellín.
The Paisa team arrives with an impressive streak of nine consecutive victories and a record of 9-3 in the regular season.
Starting this Thursday night, they will seek to revalidate their 2025-I League title, where they beat Caimanes 3-0.
In addition, they will try to achieve a historic two-time championship, a “back to back” that would be unprecedented for Antioquia and would mean their eighth title in the history of professional basketball.
Among its 12 players, figures such as former Phoenix Suns NBA player Ty-Shon Alexander stand out, along with imports Brandon Weatherspoon, Cris Crawford and Erick Crawford.
In addition, the squad has the core of the Colombian National Team, including Juan Diego Tello, Soren de Luque and Luis Almanza.
These participated in the recent FIFA window and are complemented by the experience of Leyder Moreno and Jose Lozano, and the impetus of rookies Esneider Mosquera, Daniel Benitez and David Ojeda.
