The UCAM Murcia CB already travels to Italy to return to play a game of Basketball Champions League, competition in which leads his group with 9 wins and 1 loss.
"Sidigas Avellino is the clear threat for the fight for first place.
It is a very important match for us, although we took two games of difference.
A victory there would place us mathematically first ", explained Alex Urtasun.
The Navarrese has assured that the team "is hurt" after the losing streak in Liga Endesa, and that he wants to "analyze what we did well and keep doing it;
and correct what we did wrong. "
Similarly, Urtasun has stressed that winning tomorrow "would give us peace of mind to focus on ACB, to have the first place insured.
Nobody likes to be where we are, and it hurts us that some victories are gone in the last seconds.
You have to try to get out of this hole. "
For the game against Sidigas Avellino will be the game Dino Radoncic and Luka Mitrovic, Murcia's last signings that already debuted last Sunday against Iberostar Tenerife.
The university students will also travel from Italian lands to Las Palmas without going through the house.
"We will come well to meet the new and to be more together and focused for the game against Herbalife Gran Canaria.
Hopefully we can take advantage of that, "admitted Urtasun.
In addition, about Radoncic and Mitrovic, he assured that they are "very happy because they are going to contribute very good things to the group".
Avellino is one of the most fit teams in the Basketball Champions League, as it comes from winning its two European commitments (against Anwil Wloclawek and MHP Riesen).
"We expect a very difficult match, because it is a team with a lot of quality.
They have a short rotation, but all their players have points in their hands.
We have to propose a very intense game and try to tire them, "Alex Urtasun finished.
The match against Sidigas Avellino will be played next Wednesday, the 16th, at 8.30 pm, and will be broadcast live by Popular TV Región de Murcia.
