Tussle for the playoffs. Only one day at the end of the regular season of the Serie B basketball championship, with a Viola in full swing for a place in the top eight. The Purple Basketball is located currently in ninth place in the standings with 32 points, in cohabitation with Sant’Antimo (7th) and Torrenova (8th), teams that precede the black oranges in the ranking thanks to the detached ranking that among the three teams involved would see that of Coach Bolignano at a disadvantage.
