The first edition of the BCL Americas, launched in September 2019 by FIBA, was claimed by the Argentinian side of Quimsa, who beat Flamengo 92-86 in the final on Friday.<\/p>\n
Brandon Robinson was named the MVP of the tournament, and finished the Final with 26 points on 9-15 shooting.<\/p>\n
Quimsa qualifies for the Intercontinental Cup 2021 that will take place in February 2021, and joins BCL champions San Pablo Burgos in the competition.<\/p>\n
This is what Horacio Muratore, former FIBA President, said at the launch of the competition in September 2019: “This new international league of clubs will be the most important in the continent and will be a platform to advance the growth of our brand in the region. This is not a succession of Liga de las Am\u00e9ricas, but rather a new product of our development project that will foster a balance between representation and quality. We will begin with 12 clubs, but we are open to incorporate more in upcoming editions.\u201d<\/p>\n
The BCL Americas has already signed relevant strategic partnerships, including those with broadcasters like DIRECTV and DAZN for the Brazilian market.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
