Valencia Basket closes the first leg of the Euroleague Regular Season on the FC Bayern Munich court

Valencia Basket men's team closes the first leg of the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague Regular Season by visiting the FC Bayern Munich court (Thursday 28, 8:30 p.m., Bmw Park, #Vamos) in a round 17 game of the maximum continental competition.

 

After winning four of their last five games in this tournament, the Taronja squad has had the opportunity to regain some energy these Christmas days to face a game that, if they win, will allow them to equal their best first leg with the current competition format.

 

Despite the rest time and the arrival of forward Justin Anderson, who will make his debut in this game with the taronja jersey, coach Álex Mumbrú has lost strength with the last-minute absences for this game of Stefan Jovic (sinusitis) and Damien Inglis (back), so he has only been able to send eleven professional players to this game, with Sergio De Larrea completing the list of twelve.

 

The precedents on this court are balanced with two victories for each side, although the German team has defended its court in the last two visits of the taronja team.

 

Valencia Basket is included in the group of seven teams with a balance of 9-7 that goes from fourth to tenth, currently occupying eighth position for its overall basket-average.
