Head coach of Parma and assistant to Emil Rajkovic at the VTB United League All-Star Game Evgueni Pashutin told that players consider the cash prize for winning a match as an additional motivation and not the main one.
The All-Star Game will take place on February 18 at the VTB Arena. The teams of Emil Rajkovic and Javier Pascual will meet on the site. The team that wins the match will receive 3 million rubles.
— Does the 3 million ruble prize for the winner motivate the players and perhaps the coaches?
– Of course, it’s a good motivation, a bonus. First of all, it’s a celebration of basketball, the All-Star Game is the calling card of the league, the icing on the cake. Of course, basketball players love to receive a bonus for a good match, but it is more of an additional motivation than the main one,” Pashutin told .
Watch the live broadcast of the United League All-Star Game on the channel on February 18 from 4:30 p.m. Moscow time.
