Ferres Regia de Monterrey edged past Abejas 88-77 in the LNBP on the night. The hosts kept their momentum going after a mixed run of results. They had lost to Lobos Platas the previous day before bouncing back against the visitors. By then the visitors knew they had to match the hosts' energy.
Abejas came with something to prove after a couple of disappointing results. They had beaten Diablos Rojos on Wednesday but lost the night before. Their recent form showed inconsistency.
The statistics tell an interesting story about how the game unfolded. Both sides pulled down 33 rebounds and dished out 16 assists each. Ferres Regia shot 36 from 72 field goals while Abejas managed 29 from 63. The hosts converted more of their chances, and here's the thing — they also took 15 free throws compared to 23 for the visitors. That discrepancy mattered in the closing stages.
Turnovers proved crucial in the deciding moments. Abejas coughed up the ball 14 times while Ferres Regia limited themselves to just nine. The hosts had built a cushion that proved decisive.
The result keeps Ferres Regia in the hunt after their recent ups and downs. They had lost 74-82 to Gambusinos before bouncing back with a 106-82 victory. This win gives them confidence heading into the next fixture. Abejas had to dig deeper after falling behind in the second half.
