Valencia Basket opens 2023 at La Fonteta hosting Carplus Fuenlabrada

Valencia Basket opens the year 2023 at la Fonteta by starting a series of six games in thirteen days hosting Carplus Fuenlabrada (Tuesday 3, 7:00 p.m., Fonteta, Movistar+ Deportes) in a round 14 Liga Endesa game.

 

The Taronja squad will try to maintain its recent good line at home to seek a win that will allow the Alex Mumbrú players to remain fully involved in the fight for the positions that give access to participate in the Final Round of the Copa del Rey.

 

The precedents are favorable to the Valencian team, which has prevailed in the last nine visits of this rival to our court.

 

Chris Jones, who missed the last game on the court at EA7 Emporio Armani Milan due to a problem in his right knee joint, has joined the team practices and could return for Tuesday's game.

 

On the eve of the game, coach Álex Mumbrú will decide which of the three non-EU players (Rivero, Webb III or Harper) is left out of the 12-players list. The long-term injured Sam Van Rossom (operated on his right knee), Millán Jiménez (operated on his left ankle) and Martin Hermannsson will continue to be absent.

 

Valencia Basket begins this round located in the 9th position with a 6-7 in the standings.
