Head coach of CSKA Moscow Andreas Pistiolis noted the importance Nikita Kurbanov for the team and said that under no circumstances was he ready to go to the match without a player.
Sunday CSKA defeated Zenit St. Petersburg in the VTB United League regular season match (83:77). Kurbanov, 38, became the first player to play 400 matches in the tournament.
— Kurbanov is a very important player. It is a great pleasure for a coach to have such an experienced basketball player on his staff.
I say I would rather lose a finger than go to the match without Kurbanov. I said the same thing about Antonov, so now I have two fingers in a dangerous position,” Pistiolis said, according to the press service of the “red-blues”.
