We will come to play the way we played - aggressive, strong and without mistakes - and I believe we will be fine. "When asked what the key to winning the game was, the American said:" Defensive rebound.

"CSKA is one of the best on the offensive rebound with Shangalya, Farid, Bolomboy and also the guards. They have a high team, so we have to be prepared - everyone needs to get rebounds. I think that's the main thing."

The rival:

CSKA Moscow is in the midst of one of the worst crises the club has gone through. The Russian team has lost five games in a row in all competitions and its good season opener in the Euroleague has become one that will make its life much more difficult. In the Euroleague Nikola Milutinov, its senior Serbian chin, and along with Toko Shangalya, who also recovered from injury, its senior players are set to be available for Dimitris Itudis. In contrast, there are some players who are in doubt - Daniel Hackett, Alexei Sheved, Marius Grigonis and Johannes Fuigtman, who are suffering from minor injuries. Ivan Ohov will be absent in the coming weeks.

Where is Lundberg. The Danish guard was one of CSKA's big success stories last season, and also opened the current season with two strong games, but since then his fitness has dropped significantly and in the last six games he is recording 7.5 points,Including only 16 percent off the arc.
