Valencia Basket seeks to extend its good shape hosting Movistar Estudiantes at La Fonteta

Valencia Basket returns home to repeat with an Endesa League game less than two days after its triumph at the UCAM Murcia’s court to try to extend its good shape (four wins in a row) hosting Movistar Estudiantes at Fonteta (Sunday 2, 17:30h, Movistar Deportes) in a game corresponding to round 35 of the Spanish League.

 

In a game in which Bojan Dubljevic can match Nacho Rodilla as the third player who has played the most games in the Endesa League with the taronja jersey, the Valencian bench will have a very special guest: the Young player from Infantil A Dani González, who will live the game together with the rest of the team and will be presented with them within the We Act against Bullying campaign promoted together with the acb.

 

Fernando San Emeterio, who suffers an acromioclavicular sprain in his right shoulder, will continue to miss for this game while the Serbian Vanja Marinkovic it’s not activated and another of his teammates would have to make room for him if coach want him in the list of twelve players for this game.

 

Jaume Ponsarnau's men have the overall precedents in their favor, as they have six consecutive wins against this rival, including the first leg game in which they came back to win 81-86. And also with the precedents in the Fonteta, where the taronja squad has won in 12 of the last 14 visits by Movistar Estudiantes, the last four in a row. The taronja squad currently occupies the fifth position in the Endesa League with 21-11 in the standings.
