Hard test to consolidate the improvement hosting Casademont Zaragoza in Fonteta

Valencia Basket returns to Fonteta just 41 hours after his solid victory vs. Bayern Munich in the Euroleague to face to the second ranked team in the Endesa League, Casademont Zaragoza, in a Endesa League (Sunday 17, 17:00h, Fonteta, Movistar Deportes 1). The Taronja squad will seek to extend the good feelings shown on Friday in the second game of the series of four that will play in seven days at home in their particular "Valencian week".

 

The Taronja team will test the offensive effectiveness that has made it the third best attack of the Endesa League against one of the best defenses in the championship. The precedents are favorable to the local team, which has a balance of 10-2 in the Fonteta against this rival and has won in the last four visits of the Aragonese team to Valencia.

 

With the confirmed absence of the point-guard Sam Van Rossom (had surgery on Wednesday in Antwerp to remove a free body in the left knee joint), Joan Sastre did not play on Friday against Bayern due to a gastroenteritis. The Taronja squad currently occupies the thirteenth position of the Endesa League, with a balance of 3-5.
