For the first time this season our team left the city on Sunday. The next stop for Army Men will be Tallinn, where they will face Kalev/Kramo in the VTB League game.

“Kalev is a good team that combines young age and experience,” CSKA head coach Dimitris Itoudis said. “Their main characteristics are the athleticism and ability to run the floor, and this is something we have to match. They have good off the pick-n-roll creators like Harper, Sokk and Veidemann, deadly shooter Arbet, good big men who can finish after their guards’ creation, Tollesfen, who can spread the defense with his shooting. We will be ready for a difficult game. We continue to carry two championship titles and this brings extra motivation to our opponents and extra responsibility on us. That requires us to be even more motivated and focused on our long way.”
