Avellino vs Unieuro: Stephens Debut & Martino’s Strategy

Treacherous trip to the Avellino field for Unieuro Forlì, who will appear in Irpinia fresh from the Stars and Stripes rotation that brought center DeShawn Stephens to the red and white in place of guard Kadeem Allen. Objective: to give continuity to the home victory against Pistoia.

“Avellino is in good shape, with three wins in the last four games, among which the home victories against Rimini and Fortitudo stand out – begins coach Antimo Maritno -. A deep roster, which can count on many 3-point shooters, but also on the impact near the basket of some players including Lewis and Dell’Agnello. Ours, obviously, has been a particular week with the double objective of preparing for the next game and at the same time working on the inclusion of a new player who will lead us to find new balances.”

“A very long away match awaits us on Sunday, against a team aiming for the top of the table – adds the young Tommaso Pinza -. We are coming off a good victory which has given us a little more confidence to face the match with the right face. Furthermore, we must be good at involving DeShawn within our game system, even if he has had few training sessions with the team behind him”.
