Minsk will host regular season game on Saturday.
MINSK (Minsk) vs Pari Nizhny Novgorod (Nizhny Novgorod)
Time: 14:30 (Moscow time)
Place: Belarus, Minsk, Falcon Club
Broadcast: Start Triumph, League website
MINSK: After 2 bright games against Astana and Uralmash, the team offense failed versus Avtodor with making only 12% of three-pointers. Despite this, MINSK has good prospects for the upcoming game. The team will play their last home game of the season and will be extra motivated, while the future opponent may be demoralized by the elimination from the play-in. Mikhail Belenitskii and Andrey Vorontsevich also left Nizhny Novgorod on loan to UNICS, which will equalize the chances of the rivals.
Pari Nizhny Novgorod: Zoran Lukic team still couldn’t save the season – after the loss to Uralmash, the Volga team lost even a theoretical chance of making the play-in. In the remaining 3 games Nizhny will have an opportunity to give Sergey Zotkin, Pavel Gankevich and other young players some practice. Nizhny Novgorod won 3 games against MINSK this season, but it may be more difficult to repeat it in the upcoming game, as the Belarusian team has picked up the pace by the end of the regular season. However, Pari NN has a much more experienced roster.
