Real Madrid are second in the Euroleague standings with 14 wins in 17 games

Real Madrid big man Walter Tavares talks after the surprising win over CSKA Moscow.

The Blancos had only 9 players (4 U19s) available for the game.

“It’s hard to play a tough team in the EuroLeague, if not the best, then one of the best. We missed a lot of guys so we came here to fight and try to do something. Like our coach said, we had to believe, try our best, to see if we can win or not. Never give up and fight until the end – this is Madrid.”

Tavares had a double-double with 15 points and 10 rebounds, plus 2 steals and 4 blocks.
