Valencia Basket starts its Russian tour looking at the 'playoff'

MADRID, Jan. 13 (SportsFinding) –

Valencia Basket will visit Khimki on Tuesday (6 pm) on the nineteenth day of the Euroleague, the starting point of the tour that will take you to visit the three Russian teams and that you can mark your 'playoff' options before the straight end of the regular league.

Moscow, St. Petersburg and again Moscow, on this second occasion before the CSKA, will host the following Valencia Basket commitments, which are about to fulfill the second third of the regular phase occupies the tenth position with a balance of 8-10, the same as precisely the Khimki.

The last defeat at home against Olympiacos cut the upward trajectory of the team 'taronja', who took it out with the very important victory against Joventut who secured the Copa del Rey, his first major goal of the season. Without losing sight of the Endesa League, you can put efforts in Europe.

Jaume Ponsarnau has problems in the indoor game, since Bojan Dubljevic and Mike Tobey, his two top specialists in the pure pivot position, do not travel to the Russian capital due to injury, which will force Maurice Ndour to do an unusual job, Louis Labeyrie or Brock Motum.

For his part, Khimki arrives at a bad time, as he has chained three straight losses against Villerbaune, Anadolu Efes and Zenit. Rimas Kurtinaitis leads an irregular team that still depends too much on the inspiration of Alexey Shved, top scorer of the Euroleague with 21.5 points per game. In the first leg, local victory at La Fonteta by 89-84.
