Coach Banchi’s words on the eve of the European challenge: “There is great focus on how we will be able to manage our energy in this back-to-back. We face Red Star, one of the teams that impressed the most in the summer for the market operated, not hiding the ambitions of wanting to be an absolute protagonist in EuroLeague. This will offer great stimulus, together with the return of Teodosic, who has represented for all the virtussino people a basketball reference point in the last 4 seasons, contributing together with Club, Staff and teammates to achieve an impressive series of successes. We want to give our audience an evening of great basketball ,measuring ourselves against opponents of extraordinary talent but replicating with the knowledge that we have weapons and resources to compete.”
Ognjen Dobric’s pregame statements, “On paper Red Star is perhaps the best version in recent years. They will definitely fight for the top 8 spots in the Euroleague standings because they are a very talented team. For us, it will definitely be a tough game to be faced with maximum concentration.”
