The “Laso era” begins in Baskonia

This season, Baskonia need to turn around last season’s results, and although they surprised Pablo Laso on the bench this summer, the “Laso era” begins.

The Vitoria-born coach is without a doubt the most important signing for the Barça club and one of the most influential players in the ACB League on the summer market.

With this move, the Buesa Arena entity has laid the first foundations of a project that changes stages and once again incorporates a large number of players while maintaining other important pillars.

The continuity of Tadas Sedekerskis, Marcus Howard and Chima Moneke ensures leadership in a team that requires patience.

Zander Raieste will aim to replace the Blaugrana and spend more time on the bench alongside Laso, but the case of Greek Nikos Rogkavopoulos is very encouraging.

Despite youth, which is a common feature of the Basque international, a second campaign in Vitoria and the departure of Vanja Marinkovic will draw even more attention to the player who has to take a step forward.

Internally, Khalifa Diop will be re-evaluated and Donta Hall will join as a physical presence, providing experience under the board.

The biggest changes were made to the direction of the team. The point guard position has been completely revamped with two players debuting in this category, Trent Forrest and Kamar Baldwin, and their adaptation will mark the progress of the Basconistas. Facet.

Tim Luwawu-Cabarrot is also a player to keep an eye on. The Frenchman, who has a long history in the NBA and EuroLeague, is being asked to share the leadership with Howard, Sedekerskis and Moneke.

The bottom of the wardrobe comes with a quarry. Pablo Laso never stopped giving opportunities to young people, and that’s no different in his city.

Therefore, Pavel Subkov and Usman Ndiayi will complete the team and will have the option to prove their quality in a team that needs patience to adjust the car.

Among the main goals of the ACB League, Baskonia feels obligated to improve on last year’s performance. For the club, which failed to reach the final stage for the first time in its history last season, qualifying for the Copa del Rey and advancing to the playoffs for the title must be marked as the end of the road.
