Basketball, Antonello Riva: “Italians should play more.”

Riva is still the top scorer in Serie A history

Riva, to date still the best scorer in the history of Serie A and the National Team, is now a key figure in PM-International. His passion for basketball is still strong, especially for the National Team. He talked about it, exclusively, with Sportal.it

Riva, what do you think of Pozzecco’s National Team?
“He is getting the most out of the players he has at his disposal. The only doubt is the lack of international experience of some elements.”

Are you referring to the fact that they play little in their respective clubs?
“Exactly, it is a problem that has been there for some time. I saw the final of Napoli-Scafati and there was not an Italian on the court. I think Pozzecco could use to see some Italians on the court. They need to grow, gain experience.”

However, the level of the national team is good, no?
“Sure, we have very good players but, again, it would be nice to see them play more.”
