Moscow basketball player CSKA Samson Ruzhentsev, on , expressed the opinion that he still has the opportunity to play in the National Basketball Association (NBA) in the future.
Ruzhentsev has been playing for CSKA since the summer of 2022. Previously, he defended the colors of the Serbian “Mega”, in college he played for the “Florida Gators”. This season, the 21-year-old striker has played 27 games for CSKA in the VTB United League, averaging 6.1 points per game.
– I don’t think I no longer have the opportunity to enter the NBA, it is not necessary to get there through the draft, I do not forget this dream. When I lived in the USA, I was bored, I always came back to Russia. It was not possible to come in the year of the coronavirus, so it was very difficult. Being there for two consecutive years was a test, so I was quite happy to be back in Russia.
Alexei Shved is my sample. Playing alongside him is a great honor, I have watched and followed him since childhood. Now I am in the same team as him, I study, he shares his knowledge, I will try to reach the same level.
At first I studied, I was going to enter the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology, until I realized that basketball was much more interesting for me, I was good at it. Basketball is not the only sport I could do, I was good at tennis, volleyball, I didn’t really like it myself, but it worked. Basketball is love, Ruzhentsev said on .
