“We return to play within friendly walls the first of two consecutive matches. We face Brescia, who recently won the Frecciarossa Final Eight, led by Alessandro Magro, who won the Coach of the Year award in 2021/22 and who this year, despite ups and downs, is confirming himself among the best having won the Italian Cup and reached the round of XNUMX of the EuroCup.
In the control room are Nikolic, Mitja's brother, author of his season high (16 points) in the last game, a good three-point shooter (38%), and Caupain, who hands out 4.5 assists per match and is recovering the best condition after a long injury. The third point guard is Laquintana, who manages to make himself useful in the minutes available.
The starting guard is Della Valle (17 points per outing), the reigning MVP of Serie A who makes three-point shooting and his ability to suffer fouls (6.3 per game) and convert free throws (93%) his points of strength. Massinburg rises from the bench, another scorer. The guard department is completed by Cournooh, an expert player capable of doing many important things.
The '3' is Petrucelli, last year's revelation, who after the injury is confirming his skills as a great defender and excellent three-point shooter (50%). The veteran Moss, who is the seventh foreigner, when called upon is used in both wing roles and is a great shooter from outside (48% from beyond the arc).
As number '4' Gabriel, a player with a great three-point shot (34% in the league) and defensive solidity; Behind him are Akele and Burns who alternate in the role with different characteristics. The centres, Odiase and Cobbins, guarantee presence and solidity in the heart of the area”.
