“Justin resumed this morning and it was planned that he would not take part in the part of the training in opposition, but he wanted to do so, in agreement with the physio. And as it went well, it bodes well for the match against Strasbourg because his presence is essential”.
The absence of Bibbins had weighed in the defeat against the Metropolitans (71-86) which delayed the validation of the ticket for the play-off. “It is important to release Brandon Jefferson, to bring us defense and speed,” commented the Pau coach.
During this press conference Eric Bartecheky indicated that “the payment of wages (Editor’s note, for the month of April) has been validated. I hope we won’t talk about it anymore”. This delay in the payment had caused a movement on the part of the players which had resulted in the cancellation of a training session before the arrival of Levallois.
The situation appeased, the Elan is not yet in the play-off. He still lacks a victory that he will have to win against Strasbourg, tomorrow, or in Roanne, next Tuesday. And if he does not succeed, then only a defeat of Nanterre, the last day, in front of Strasbourg, would offer him the sesame for the play-off.
