Valencia Basket seeks to certify being seeded against a Movistar Estudiantes in a good streak

Valencia Basket returns to the Fonteta three weeks after his victory against Unicaja to face Movistar Estudiantes (Sunday 13, 18: 00h, Fonteta, Movistar Deportes 1) in a match in which in the case of winning the win would certify mathematically his condition as a seed in the Endesa League Playoffs. In a meeting full of emotion for different reasons, the Montenegrin center Bojan Dubljevic reaches four points to equal Brad Branson and become the top scorer in the history of the Club.

 

In a match in which the two teams that shot most three points in the Endesa League and in which Valencia Basket debuts its statistical status as the best defense of the championship, the Croatian center Ivan Buva could play his first minutes as our player in the Fonteta.

 

The taronja team recovers for this match the presence in the rosters of forward Fernando San Emeterio and point guard Guillem Vives. Even center Tibor Pleiss could enter the list if his sensations in the fascia of the right foot are positive in the last practice sessions. Although point guard Sam Van Rossom is sidelined for this game (hamstring strain left leg) and join the already known absences of Rafa Martinez, Latavious Williams and Antoine Diot. Valencia Basket currently occupies the fourth position of the Endesa League, with a balance of 21-10.
