Less than in 2 days our team will be on the court again. Nizhny Novgorod visits the Army Men on Sunday.

“Nizhny have always been a competitive team and it remains the same this season despite many changes,” CSKA head coach Dimitris Itoudis said. “Their offense is run mostly by the trio of guards Strebkov, Kane and Boynton, they are effective in the open court and off the pick-n-rolls, play aggressive basketball. After excellent performance against Baskonia the game for us will again be the matter of energy and motivation.”
