Valencia Basket closes the week visiting the court of an improved Urbas Fuenlabrada

Valencia Basket closes the first week of this crazy December by visiting the court of one of the most improved teams in the central section of the first leg, Urbas Fuenlabrada (Saturday 5, 8:45 p.m., Fernando Martín, Movistar Deportes) in a game corresponding to round 13 of the Endesa League.

 

The taronja squad has the challenge of consolidating the change in dynamics in national competition that began with their victory on Tuesday at the Palau Blaugrana, looking for their best version despite the physical exhaustion in what will be their third game in five days. For this, it will be decisive to stop the offensive capacity of the Madrid team, which is the fourth best attack in the Endesa League and has scored 87.2 points on average per game since Javier Juárez's arrival on the bench.

 

Valencia Basket maintains the same three sidelined players that it has had in recent games: Louis Labeyrie (grade II sprain on the right ankle), Vanja Marinkovic (acute shoulder dislocation with associated biceps tendon detachment) and Joan Sastre (recovering from a partial tear in the medial lateral ligament of the right knee). The Valencian team begins this round 13 in the eleventh position of the Endesa League with a 5-6 in the standings.
