Pierrià Henry is a doubt for the two games played by Cazoo Baskonia this week in Istanbul: against Efes this Wednesday (6:30 p.m., DAZN) and against Fenerbahçe on Friday. The point guard had to fly to the United States to resolve some personal matters and, if he appears, which is unknown, he will do so on his own coming from North America, not with the official team expedition. The rest of the players are already available to Joan Peñarroya.
The Baskonia did a great game in Gran Canaria on Sunday night but he returned to Vitoria on Monday, trained at home, his coach offered the previous one at Buesa and flew from Bilbao to the Turkish city. Some journalists, for example, linked the trip to the Fortunate Islands with the flight to Istanbul without going home to make a clean slate.
Sedekerskis is already recovered from his adductor injury. He felt discomfort in that area in the last minute of the clash against Zalgiris and then he was diagnosed with a microtear. But he shut down and, thanks to the physios and recuperators, he returned to the field in the last two games. Enoch has overcome his serious ankle problems and will also be available to your coach. In the ACB League you have to make a discard and on Sunday it was the turn of the Serbian Vanja Marinkovic again. Kurucs has some physical discomfort and, in the local team, Shane Larkin, who has not yet made his debut this season in the Euroleague, remains a doubt.
“Anadolu Efes is a team with a lot of quality, they play very simple and they have the best outside line in Europe, with the two most dominating players in the Euroleague in recent years”, he commented referring to Larkin and Micic. “Then Beaubois is a luxury and they have added Clyburn”assured the Catalan coach before leaving for the Biscayne airport. “The team is good, I see it compact and it is improving, but there is still capacity to do things better. This is very long and we have to grow because surely that is what our opponents are going to do”he added convinced.
