BAXI Manresa wants to give Olímpic a blow
Catalan duel on matchday 27 of the Endesa League, where BAXI Manresa will visit the Joventut de Badalona court, Sunday at 12:30. Traoré could reappear in a match in which Ocampo recovers his strength.
BAXI Manresa arrives at matchday 27 in play-off positions and with a much more powerful rival but with whom there is a difference of only one match. Joventut de Badalona is 6th. The Bages team is 7th and wants to give the team a new boost by giving a blow to Badalona.
Second week without any other commitment than the Endesa League. This matchday 27 will move BAXI Manresa to Badalona in a Catalan duel in the midst of the fight for the play-off places. Diego Ocampo's team is conscientiously preparing for the match on a very complicated court and recovering its strength. After the reinstatement of Cameron Hunt, Armel Traoré is now added to the team's daily routine, having already overcome his knee injury. It will be necessary to see how he responds to the last training sessions of the week and assess whether he can be part of the 12 players who will play in Badalona.
Joventut de Badalona arrives after 2 away wins and a defeat at the Olímpic with Barça. Dani Miret's team has a luxury squad with experienced men and talent from the quarry. Ante Tomic is the team's beacon and the most highly valued player, but men like Sam Dekker, Dotson, Robertson or Pustovyi join the Badalona school led by Ribas, Vives and followed by the young Kraag or Ruzic. A team designed to compete for titles that will want to defend their fiefdom.
In the press conference this Friday, Diego Ocampo said that "with Grazulis they add another experienced player who increases the team's rotation; they have experienced and high-level players: Dotson, Tomic, Ribas, Pustovyi and 2 super-class young players; they make up a team that offensively knows how to stop, knows how to run and above all has a lot of quality in passing; the epicenter is Tomic, they play with 2 points plus Tomic".
