Appearance “Uralmash” And “Runes” in the VTB United League will have a positive impact on the development of national basketball, says the honored coach of Russia Sergei Elevitch .
Uralmash Yekaterinburg and Runa Moscow were admitted to the VTB United League on Wednesday with a one-year trial period. Both teams will play for the first time in the league.
– Of course, I am all for these two teams playing in the United League. For at least one reason: they are Russian clubs. And they have long earned a place in the elite of Russian basketball. Moreover, Uralmash won the Superleague-1 championship for the second year in a row. Of course, they should already be launched in the United League. “Runa” also behaves very well.
You have to take into account that there are a lot of Russian players there. While we have such a period, we must do everything to develop our own basketball, Russian,” Yelevich told a correspondent.
