Criollos de Caguas defeated Vaqueros de Bayamón 122:79 in a BSN match on 2 August 2026. The home side ran out comfortable winners in what was a one-sided affair. The result keeps the hosts top of the table with 23 wins from 34 games, while Vaqueros remain second on 22 victories.
The scoreline tells its own story. Criollos built a commanding lead early and never let it slip. Vaqueros never got going, struggling to find rhythm against a home side that looked sharp from the opening tip. The visitors were trailing by double digits well before the halfway stage and never threatened to close the gap.
Turnovers proved costly for Vaqueros. They committed 22 turnovers compared to 12 for Criollos, meaning they lost possession at nearly twice the rate. Criollos also won the battle on the boards with 29 rebounds to 27, though the difference was marginal. The visitors did edge the assist count 31 to 14, suggesting they moved the ball better when they had it but rarely got the chance.
From three-point range, Vaqueros actually shot better. They made 16 of 27 attempts compared to Criollos' 10 from 33, but the volume of shots tells a different story. Criollos generated far more opportunities inside and at the free-throw line, where they converted 13 of 20 attempts.
The result extends Vaqueros' losing streak to three games. They lost 111:97, 106:83 and 88:69 in their previous four meetings with Criollos, with only a 78:74 win on 25 July breaking the pattern. The hosts now hold a two-point advantage at the top of the standings.
