Valencia Basket tests its good streak on the hard court of KIROLBET Baskonia

After a streak of four wins in a row at La Fonteta, Valencia Basket returns to the road to travel to Vitoria and visit the KIROLBET Baskonia’s court in a Endesa League round 10 game (Sunday 24, 18: 30h, Fernando Buesa Arena, Movistar Deportes) in what will be its fifth game in ten days. After winning over Zenit and Khimki Moscow Region, the Taronja team will try to close a perfect week on the court that resists the most to the taronja squad in the Endesa League (it has only won 16.6% of its visits).

 

A duel between two Euroleague teams that need to add victories to stay close to the positions that give access to the Copa del Rey and that puts face to face two of the best attacks in the competition. With his first field goal, center Bojan Dubljevic could become the fourth player in the history of the Club to reach 3,000 points scored in Liga Endesa as a taronja player.

 

With the only confirmed absence of point-guard Sam Van Rossom (had surgery two weeks ago on his left knee), the rest of the roster is available to face this game. Fernando San Emeterio currently has his card deactivated for the Endesa League, although he can be activated until tomorrow at 2:00 p.m. The Taronja team currently occupies the tenth position of the Endesa League with a balance of 4-5.
