Coach Priftis: “Tough game, against a team that loves to keep the pace high. We should be good on defense, especially on the perimeter.” Tap-off on Sunday at 6pm
REGGIO EMILIA – The Una Hotels travels towards Varese where on Sunday at 6pm, at the Itelyum Arena, they will face the hosts in an important match to relaunch themselves in the standings after the daring defeat suffered at the PalaBigi against Cantù.
“The one against Varese will definitely be one hard claw – he comments the coach of Pallacanestro Reggiana, Dimitris Prifits – He comes from an important victory in Milan, while we came from a bad defeat, so the mood is different. It has particularly offensive guards, good in one-on-one situations and who like to keep the pace high, shooting even in the first seconds of the action. Perimeter defense and control of possessions will be fundamental aspects of the match. Under the basket they can rely on both Renfro’s physicality and Nkamhoua, who doesn’t mind starting from the arc. We will have to manage some aches and pains, like those of Echenique e Vitali, who however will probably be in the game. We will do our best to try to win this race.”
The match will be directed by the referee team composed of Giovannetti, Capotorto and Dori.
