Dmitry SKAPITSEV: “Playing with Lenham and Pustov is a challenge for me”
Dmitry Skapintsev believes that the Ukrainian national team should take revenge on the Italians for an unfortunate defeat in the World Cup selection.
“We didn’t start the game very well with the Estonians, we lost -10 right away. There are no easy games in EuroBasket and these 10 points had to be played. It was difficult, we were catching up with them almost the whole game, but at the end of the match luck smiled at us, Ilya Sidorov took the ball and added 2 points. Thanks to the disciplined work in defense, we recovered and finally caught our opponent.
It was hard to imagine that I would apply for the EuroBasket in the winter and early summer. That’s why I’m very motivated, satisfied and want to show my best game. Having the opportunity to play with Lenham is a very positive thing. We have already met Artem Pustov in the national team. Playing with them is a new challenge for me. I can try it myself and learn something new. These are Euroleague and NBA level players, so being on the same level as them is very important to me.
Regarding the next match, it is very important for us to take revenge on the Italians for the defeat. I believe we should have won that game, but now we can take revenge in front of the Italian fans. Why? I don’t think this team is stronger than us. Playing with Greece will also be very interesting. An experienced team with the best Euroleague and NBA players, it will be interesting to play against Giannis. Matches will be tough and I’m sure we can impose a challenge.
We need to play with more discipline and confidence against the Italians than in Riga. There were a few whistles that I thought spoiled our game in that game. We started to worry a lot about this, pay attention to the judges and lose our concentration. That’s why I believe we need to play more measuredly here, control our emotions and fight for every ball with a cool head and a warm heart.”
The match between Ukraine and Italy will be played on Monday, September 5, in Milan. Sport.ua will broadcast a text online broadcast of the Ukraine v Italy match.

Greek “Panathinaikos” The team faced serious personnel problems due to the flu epidemic.
Eight players and three members of the coaching staff were immediately diagnosed with influenza A with severe symptoms.
Panathinaikos has shown good form in recent matches, but flu A has spread to Greece and has affected the team, which will most likely lead to the postponement of the Greek championship match against Maroussi, scheduled for December 27.
The problem is not only related to the championship match, but also to the derby against Olympiacos in the Euroleague, which is scheduled for January 2, as the epidemic prevents the team’s normal preparations.
Since many players have severe symptoms, no one can say for sure how the disease will progress and when everyone will be healthy.
The names of the sick people have not been disclosed at this time.

Dallas Mavericks basketball player Anthony Davis suffered a minor groin strain and is expected to miss several games, ESPN reports.
Davis was injured in the second quarter of the NBA regular season match against Golden State (116:126). He stopped after attempting a run to catch a pass on a fast break and immediately limped toward the bench, asking for a sub.
His condition will be assessed on a daily basis, but the club intends to approach his recovery with caution.
Earlier this season, Davis missed 14 games with a strained calf muscle in his left leg.
This season, when Davis was on the roster, the Mavericks had a record of 8 wins to 8 losses, and when he was not playing, the Mavericks went 4 wins to 12 losses.
