Valencia Basket was the defending champions which were defeated in semifinals by Barça that could not prevent the overwhelming triumph from Asisa Joventut which achieved their first supercup title ending a 18-year drought without titles and becoming the first team to win the supercup as the host team ending a 23-year curse of the host.

Semifinals
Asisa Joventut vs. Kosner Baskonia Asisa Joventut qualified for the final in which they host at the Palau Olímpic led by Argentine point guard Nico Laprovíttola (27 points) after defeating Kosner Baskonia 96–84 in the first semifinal. A strong second half from the team from Badalona, featuring a 58–43 run, proved key to their return to a supercup final after a 39–year absence in their first appearance since 1987.
Valencia Basket vs. Barça Barça vanquished a tough Valencia Basket (86–87) in the second semifinal of the supercup; despite trailing for over 35 minutes, Valencia never gave up and nearly staged a comeback with a buzzer beater from his own half made by Dylan Osetkowski that hit the rim. The team coached by Aleksander Sekulić dominated the boards and held a maximum advantage of 10 points in the second half, fueled by a balanced team effort in which 11 of the 12 players scored, although point guard Justin Robinson (17 points) and power forward Olivier Nkamhoua (10 points and 12 rebounds) stood out.
However, Valencia Basket, led by point guard TJ Shorts (17 points) and small forward Kameron Taylor (23 points), fought hard until the very end and had a chance to turn the match around. Having taken down the defending champions, Barça qualified to the final to face to the host team, Asisa Joventut in the Catalan derby with the aim to win the supercup for the seventh time and the first since 2015. The match at the Olímpic was a rematch of the 2026 ACB Finals, though the contenders bore little resemblance to their previous incarnations; both teams had new coaches and overhauled rosters: 10 new signings for Valencia and 11 for Barça with Valencia opting for continuity while the Barça adopted a radical shift toward a more physical, youthful style of play.
Final Argentine point guard Nico Laprovíttola crushed his former team Barça with 31 points and 9 three-pointers, sealing the final for Asisa Joventut (101–87); backed by their home crowd at the Olímpic, the team from Badalona was crowned tournament champion for the first time. Towering over the club that decided not to renew his contract in the summer, Laprovittola broke the competition's record for three-pointers—previously held by his compatriot Pablo Prigioni since 2008 with six. Yet, beyond his individual masterclass, the fact that Dani Miret’s roster was leading the match for the full 40 minutes was due to a collective team effort.
The playmaking of point guard Ricky Rubio (10 points, 8 assists), the perimeter sparks provided by Boogie Ellis (8 points) and Álex Reyes (11 points), and the energy provided by the power forwards Eli Ndiaye (14 points) and Emir Sulejmanović (19 points) in the paint played a significant role in the success of La Penya, which secured its first title since the 2007–08 ULEB Cup. Barça looked uncomfortable and inconsistent throughout the match, though they never stopped fighting; they remained in contention heading into the fourth quarter thanks largely to the leadership of shooting guard Kevin Punter (20 points) and small forward Joel Parra (24 points) which was particularly motivated while facing his former fans.
