SCHIGLINSKY: “There will be no easy matches in this bubble”
Head coach of BC Zaporozhye Dmitry Shchiglinsky He evaluated the team’s preparations for the first matches of the Super League in 2026 as follows:
“A tough home bubble awaits us, strong rivals will arrive – Prykarpattya-Hoverla and Stary Lutsk. Preparations were carried out as usual, the children took a few days off for the holiday, and then we completely restarted the training process.”
We recently faced Hoverla in the Ukrainian Cup and unfortunately we lost then. This is a well-coordinated team that practices competent basketball. You need to be as focused as possible against them because such an opponent is ready to punish any mistake in defense.
The second match will be played against “Old Lutsk”. In the last matches against Kiev-Basket in the Championship and Dnepr in the Cup, this team showed that, after the arrival of foreign players and the change of coach, they have significantly restructured their game, especially in defense. It is clear that, despite the defeats, “Old Lutsk” has seriously improved. They now have a balanced squad, American players can take over the game, and there are individually strong Ukrainians. Therefore, there will be no easy matches in this bubble; “We’re going to have some really tough fights.”
Previously, Nikita Voevoda mentioned that the team is ready to continue the season in the Super League.

“I don’t eat fast food, exclude snacks, and drink a lot of still water.” Egor Demin spoke about his diet
Russian point guard for the NBA’s Brooklyn Nets, Yegor Demin, spoke about his diet.
The Russian is spending his first season in the NBA. The Nets selected him eighth overall in the 2025 draft.
— I have my own diet and nutrition regimen. This is important given the schedule and goal of bulking and recovery. My position and that of the staff who is responsible for this is to take the maximum from ordinary products.
I don’t eat fast food, exclude snacks, and drink a lot of still water. We have excellent food at the training center, you can always have a snack before or after training.
I also visit my favorite restaurants, buy or order products where I am satisfied with the quality. For example, I buy dairy products at a farm store.
Well, during the period when my mother is here in New York, she cooks me my favorite home-cooked food. We went to a store that sold Russian products and bought a lot of things.
My favorite dishes are my mother’s homemade borscht, mushroom soup, homemade cutlets, cheesecakes. I love buckwheat very much, it is sold only in Russian stores.
And for the New Year, of course, as an exception, we couldn’t do without our favorite Olivier,” Demin wrote in the Telegram channel.
