Valencia Basket will test its good shape on the court of a renovated Montakit Fuenlabrada

15/03/2019

Valencia Basket returns to the competition after a clean week of work to prepare its visit to the court of Montakit Fuenlabrada (Saturday 16, 20:30h, Fernando Martin, Movistar Deportes 2) in a Endesa League round 23 game. The taronja squad will try to extend its good shape after the break for the 2019 FIBA World Cup European Qualifiers. From that momento, Valencia Basket has chained four wins in a row and got its passport to the 7DAYS EuroCup semifinals. And he will seek to win his 650th victory in the Endesa League on a court in which he has won seven of his last nine visits, although he was defeated two seasons ago.

 

Playmaker Sam Van Rossom will reach in this game the figure of 268 games with the Valencia Basket’s jersey, a figure that allows him to tie Lishchuk in the seventh place in the historical classification of games played as taronja. Once Antoine Diot has overcome his discomfort in the hamstrings of the left leg, the taronja team has been practicing this week with all its 14 professional players and will have to sideline two players for the tomorrow’s game. If the French point- guard is not activated for the Endesa League before tomorrow at 2:00 p.m., Diot will be one of the players who does not line up in the Fernando Martín. The taronja team defends in this game the fourth position that reached last week, with a balance of 14 wins and 8 defeats.
