Valencia Basket opens its participation in the BKT EuroCup by visiting Hapoel Bank Yahav Jerusalem

Valencia Basket men's team will begin its participation in the BKT EuroCup by visiting Hapoel Bank Yahav Jerusalem (Wednesday 25, 7:00 p.m., Samokov Arena, #Vamos/Deportes on M+) in a game that will be played on a neutral field in this location bulgarian

 

This game, which opens our team's 14th presence in this tournament, will also be the first official game of Pedro Martínez's second stage and the official debut of the five signings that the Taronja team has made for this season (Brancou Badio, Jean Montero, Nate Sestina, Ethan Happ and Matt Costello).

 

Point guards Chris Jones and Sergio De Larrea will miss it due to injury, so Lucas Marí completes the roster for this tour.

 

It will be the fifth time that Valencia Basket faces this rival in continental competitions away from Fonteta with good precedents (they have won in three of the four previous games) although it is the first time they will do so outside of Israel.
