Led by Navarro, Barcelona heads to Liga Endesa Finals

Juan Carlos Navarro buried a late three-pointer to help Barcelona edge out Unicaja Malaga 77-74 and reach the 2015 Liga Endesa finals.

With 19 seconds left, Navarro was left open and he had the ball fed to him, with only one thing on his mind: the shot.

The veteran’s three-pointer gave Barca a 75-72 lead and it proved to be the dagger that Malaga, for so long in the season top of the standings, couldn’t come back from.

Navarro ended with 10 points, DeShaun Thomas led the scoring with 14.

Barca will face Real Madrid in the finals after they ousted Valencia in their semi-final clash. Game one is on Friday.
