WORD TO THE COACH
Dimitris Itoudis, CSKA head coach:
We are getting into tough period with many road trips, so managing the stamina is very important. Still we prepare for the Zielona Gora with big respect to our opponent. They run the floor well, they have a variety of set plays and they remain a very dangerous opponent, especially when they play at home.
