Valencia Basket visits the leader Anadolu Efes Istanbul

Valencia Basket will seek to recover feelings and break its bad dynamics of results in the most complicated scenario possible, as the taronja squad visits the court of the current leader of the Turkish Airlines Euroleague, Anadolu Efes Istanbul, in a game corresponding to the round 29 of the maximum continental competition (Thursday 12, 18:30h, Sinan Erden Dome, DAZN).

 

The Taronja team will have to fight not only against the strength of this rival on their own court (balance of 20-3 of the Turks at home) and against their own history (they have never managed to win on the Anadolu Efes court in their three visits previous), but will also have to do it with the already-known absence of Jordan Loyd and without Fernando San Emeterio, last-minute sidelined due to some discomfort on his right knee.

 

The other twelve players will have two practices in Turkish lands before tomorrow's game. Valencia Basket currently occupies the tenth position of the Turkish Airlines Euroleague, with a 12-16 in the standings.
