Former basketball player Russian national team Sergei Monia In a conversation with , he said that the teams that ranked from first to fourth place in the last VTB United League have the same chances of winning the new season.
At the end of last season, CSKA became the tournament champion, UNICS Kazan took second place, Zenit St. Petersburg took bronze, and Lokomotiv-Kuban Krasnodar took fourth place.
— What do you think are CSKA’s chances of retaining the title in the new season?
— I think the top four have equal chances based on last season’s results. The season is very long – four rounds – and whoever comes through it without injury will have a better chance of winning.
— Many, despite the fact that we are not currently playing on the international stage, note the high level of the United League championship. Do you agree with this?
— And now, high-level foreign players are coming. Of course, the level has dropped somewhere after we suspended the European Cup tournaments. Because the best players were still coming to us. So, overall, we are having a very good tournament. Yesterday, UNICS played against Besiktas: the Kazan team beat the last team from Turkey by a long way. So the level remains high, ”Monya told .
The new season of the VTB United League starts on September 21.
