Our team spent almost all daytime to get to Krasnoyarsk to play Enisey in BEKO PBL regular championship game on Saturday.
Transaero Airlines Boieng departed from Domodedovo in early morning and landed in the evening. Army men went directly to Ivan Yarygin Arena to hold the practice there. Jamont Gordon, Andrey Kirilenko and Milos Teodosic joined the teammates, so the coaches had 14 players at hand. Only Sammy Mejia stayed in Moscow to continue his rehabilitation.
“We went to Krasnoyarsk remembering that we lost here by 18 points during our previous visit,” – CSKA head coach Jonas Kazlauskas said. “Besides Yenisey routed Prokom recently, hence you can assume they are in good shape. We started to get our injured players back, so it will be important to keep balance between playing for the result and letting the guys who missed time to feel the game.”
