This doesn’t sit well with the authoritarian
Professional and critical journalism is a fundamental pillar of democracy. That’s why it bothers those who believe they own the truth.
Boca had started the final series with two losses in Córdoba, adding to the sweetness of their achievement. From that point, they strung together four consecutive wins, marking an incredible comeback. This victory caps years of struggle, including recent battles against relegation.
The 2023/24 title is Boca’s fourth National Basketball League championship, with previous titles won in the 1996/97, 2003/04, and 2006/07 seasons.
