BAXI Manresa wants to rediscover the good feelings by hosting Leyma Coruña

This Sunday, the Liga Endesa reactivates the Nou Congost after a month without matches. The rival is Leyma Coruña, a team with old acquaintances such as Taylor or Álex Hernández, who returns to the Nou Congost years later.

BAXI Manresa faces the 22nd matchday of the Liga Endesa eager to meet again with the public of the Nou Congost a month after the last match. The Bages team arrives having lost in Italy in the BCL and wanting to reaffirm the great season they are having. The reds have doubts about Obasohan, who has a problem with his fascia, Bodian Massa who has tendonitis in the Achilles that has worsened, while Armel Traoré suffers from discomfort in his knee.

For its part, Leyma Coruña arrives in a different situation. Diego Epifanio's team, one of the newcomers to the top flight this season, is at the bottom with 5 wins and needs to get out of the bottom to continue to inspire a city that has elite basketball for the first time. In the ranks of the oranges, two well-known players: the point guards Brandon Taylor and Alex Hernandez, who returns for the first time to the Nou Congost 10 years after leaving.

Diego Ocampo appeared before the media this Friday. The Ourense coach said that «between the 2 point guards [Heurtel and Taylor] they make more than 15 assists per game and give finishes for both the inside and outside players; they generate advantages but we will have to link many efforts to be able to get to the fight for the rebound; we are prepared to fight against adversity and it is necessary that we have a good spirit to infect the public, it will be a game of epic, of resilience, of continuing... we have to get through this moment».
