Bilbao, last stop in the Endesa League for Valencia Basket before the break

10/02/2024

Valencia Basket men's team returns to the road to face its last game before the break in the competition for the Copa del Rey and the international qualification games, visiting the Surne Bilbao Basket court (Sunday 11, 12:30 p.m., Bilbao Arena, Movistar Sports) in a Liga Endesa round 22 game.

 

The taronja team will try to continue a good dynamic that has led them to win three of their last four games in national competition on a court where the record is tied, but where they have fallen in their last two visits and against a rival that took the victory from Fonteta in the first leg game.

 

Coach Álex Mumbrú's absences are piling up and he will have to face returning to a court where his number has been retired as a player with four certain absences.

 

The forward Xabi López-Arostegui has not been able to travel due to a sprained left ankle that prevented him from finishing Thursday's game against Olympiacos, so his absence joins the known absences of centers Brandon Davies and Boubacar Touré.In addition, one of the three non-EU members of the squad will miss this clash to comply with the ACB quota regulations.

 

Valencia Basket begins this round in fifth position in the acb with a balance of 13-8
