Valencia Basket begin 2018 recovering their Endesa League game at Unicaja’s court

01/01/2018

Valencia Basket opens the year 2018 with the first of their two consecutive commitments at Unicaja’s court, the corresponding to the postponed game of Endesa League week 13 (Tuesday 2, 21:00h, Martín Carpena, Movistar Deportes 1) in the that a taronja triumph would mathematically certify the ticket for the Copa del Rey. The men of Txus Vidorreta want to take advantage of the confidence gained after the two consecutive victories to close the year and will try to maintain their good line of results this season against the Malaga team, which has prevailed in the two games played until the moment in the current course.

 

The accuracy in the three-points line (30/61 in the last two games in the Endesa League) have made the taronja squad the best in the championship in three point shooting percentage, although it will only have a rotation of 9 pro players to try to assault Malaga. The infirmary is still occupied by six injured players (Fernando San Emeterio, Guillem Vives, Joan Sastre, Antoine Diot, Latavious Williams and Sergi Garcia) and although there are other players who have traveled with discomfort, it is expected that there will be no more absences in the tomorrow’s game. Valencia Basket currently occupies the second position in the Endesa League, with a balance of 10-3.
