In the near future, the champion will hold sparring matches with Stary Lutsk, BC Rivne and will meet again with Zaporizhia
The first friendly match of the off-season between the clubs took place Basketball Super League. The current champion Dnieper outplayed on his own court BC Zaporozhye — 89:77.
The game was played without spectators and with the home team in a confident advantage. Dnepr went into the big break with a handicap of +20. The visitors managed to reduce the gap a little later, but the confrontation never gained any serious intrigue.
The Dnipro team has two away games planned ahead, against Stary Lutsk and BC Rivne (September 11-12), as well as a repeat home friendly against Zaporizhia (September 17).
At the end of the month, the Ukrainian champion will play against Romanian Constanta in the FIBA Europe Cup qualification.
Let us recall that in the final of the FAVBET Super League 2023/24 playoffs, Dnipro beat Rivne. Volodymyr Koval’s team won the golden double, having previously won the Ukrainian Cup.
BC Zaporizhzhya took fifth place in the regular championship last season. In the playoffs, Valeriy Plekhanov’s team lost to Cherkasy Monkeys in the quarterfinals.
