Reyer Venezia, Gianluca Tucci spots key against Cluj

The words of Gianluca Tucci

Reyer Venezia’s assistant coach Gianluca Tucci presented the challenge against Cluj-Napoca, a match valid for the twelfth day of the Eurocup, scheduled for Tuesday night at the ‘Taliercio’ at 8 pm.

The assistant coach of the orogranata spoke to official channels this way, “Cluj has changed a lot since the first round. It has included the two point guards Kasey and Gordic, both fast and excellent forwards, and recently also wing Jalen Jones, a pure forward who can alternate between inside solutions and shots from distance. Now Cluj is a lineup that has 11 players all starters and expresses intense play throughout the match.”

“On the strength of the last away win in the Eurocup, we face them in a moment of great form and euphoria, so we will have to put maximum energy on the court from the first minutes of the game to bring the match on a congenial plane to our rhythm and our inside game. The battle under the basket (Bircevic and Stipanovic have so much experience) may tip the scales of the match,” Tucci concluded.
