After finishing third in the LDB qualifying round, Flamengo is now in São Paulo for the final stage of the competition. In Group D, alongside Curitiba Basquetebol, Paulistano, and São José, Flamengo will play all its matches at the Ginásio Antonio Prado Jr. To advance to the semifinals, it needs to finish among the top two in the group.

Focused on being champion, coach Rodrigo Galego said that the team prepared for the moment and preached calm:

"We've reached the stage we always wanted to be at, where we'll have the chance to compete directly for the Final Four. We know the teams have evolved within the competition, but we've also grown and are capable of fighting for our goal. We've trained all year and want to go for the title."
