New test for Valencia Basket at Montakit Fuenlabrada’s court

Valencia Basket repeats on the road in the Endesa League visiting the court of Montakit Fuenlabrada in a round 31 game (Sunday 6, 12:30, Fernando Martín, Movistar + dial 193). With the ticket for the Playoff obtained mathematically last week, the taronja team will look for a win in a complicated place that allows the taronja squad to approach the following objective: to mathematically certify the seeded position that occupies at the moment. The biggest news of the game is the presence in the Valencian squad of the latest addition, the Croatian center Ivan Buva, who could debut with the taronja shirt in this match.

 

Counting the new acquisition to the squad, coach Txus Vidorreta will have at his disposal in Fuenlabrada nine professional players, plus the help of young Puerto and Hlinason. None of the injured left the infirmary and Rafa Martinez joins her for a right knee injury. The captain will be sidelined for this game next to Tibor Pleiss (plantar fasciitis in the right foot), Fernando San Emeterio (fibrillar fracture in the left soleus), Guillem Vives (tenosynovitis in the left ankle), Latavious Williams (relapse right tibia injury) and the long-term injured Antoine Diot.

 

Center Bojan Dubljevic reaches this game 16 points to reach the scoring number of Brad Branson, so if you score this number tomorrow, will become the best foreign scorer in the history of the Club. Valencia Basket currently occupies the fourth position of the Endesa League, with a balance of 20-10.
