Valencia Basket requests not to play in ACB or to do so with the young players before game 5 against Panathinaikkos
Valencia Basket seeks to postpone a game to face the Euroleague with strength, otherwise it will resort to its affiliate in the national league.
In statements to 'El Partidazo de COPE', Enric Carbonell, CEO of Valencia Basket, has requested the postponement of the match against Baskonia to prepare for Panathinaikos. If they don't succeed, they are considering using under-23 players. The tight match schedule includes games in the EuroLeague and ACB in just a few days.
Faced with the refusal to modify the schedule for EuroLeague clubs, Valencia Basket is contemplating the possibility of fielding its young talents in the national league. The importance of commitments in the EuroLeague shapes the team's strategy.
Tight Schedule
The Spanish ACB does not give respite to teams competing in the top European competition. While in other leagues, playoffs are postponed to favor those aiming for the European title, in Spain, the demands of the EuroLeague complicate the clubs' calendar.
