During the matchday 27 of the league, Real Madrid lost el Clasico at the Palau Blaugrana. The Madridistas played well in the first quarter of the fifth Clasico of the season, but a decline in play in the third quarter proved to be the game's deciding factor, despite the team's efforts to come back in the final quarter.

Musa, with 24 points and 33 in PIR, along with Yabusele, with 19 and 21, were the team's best performers, as Williams-Goss and Llull made their returns from injury.
