Minsk will host a regular season game on Monday.
Time: 19:00 (Moscow time)
Place: Belarus, Minsk, Minsk Arena
Broadcast: Match! Igra, TV Start, League website
MINSK: The team played against Loko without Jarred Ogungbemi-Jackson. The absence of the leader affected the result – the Krasnodar team won all quarters. But on the positive side, the young players got more opportunities and Benjamin-Pavel Dudu had his best game of the season with 14 points. The game with PARMA will be the last opportunity to win at home in the first stage. This season, no team in the League has been able to pick up an easy win at Minsk Arena, so fans have every reason to expect a tense rivalry.
PARMA: The Perm team is one step away from the Playoffs. After Samara’s loss to Loko, Evgeny Pashutin team need 1 more win to secure a spot in the Top 6. That’s why the team is going to Minsk with a good motivation. PARMA has a 4-game winning streak. B.J. Johnson is having a phenomenal stretch with 24 points per game and has already scored 20+ against the Minsk team defense this season. Richard Solomon will be another important player as he had an outstanding 16 rebounds in the first game with MINSK. If PARMA leaders can maintain their current level, the team will have a good chance to advance to the season’s decisive stage early.
