Our team went to Kazan by Transaero flight today to play the game of Round 3 of the VTB United League regular championship on Saturday. The game will be the first on road against Russian clubs this season – visits to Dynamo and Triumph did not demand to take the plane.
After its first Euroleague win our team started to prepare for the next game. Victor Khryapa continues to practice together with his teammates. Trajan Langdon who took the elbow to his head against Olimpija avoided stitches and bandage.
“UNICS likes to run, to use pick-n-rolls and pick-n-pops, Popovic and Lampe interact well, Lyday is a great scorer too, - CSKA head coach Dusko Vujosevic said. Kazan team also defends very aggressively. It is important for us to show good basketball and to try to continue our progress.”
