VIB Vs KRA Fantasy Picks
Point Guard
With 17 points in his foregone encounter, Will Cummings from Krasnodar will represent us in this docket. He has a penchant for shooting from the deep, one which allows him to open the zone up for himself and layup the triples.
Shooting Guard
Jordan Crawford was touted as one of the players to watch out prior to the onset of the tournament and he lived upto the moniker accorded to him. The shooting guard was immaculate, not only drooping 21 points on the day but emerging as his side’s top scorer as well.
Small Forward
At a meagre 5.5 credits, Andrei Martiuk was too let to slip out of our hands. The cheapest pick in our setup, the Krasnodar small froward registered 6 points and 4 rebounds in his first contest of the season, a showing which alluded towards the influence he exerts inside the paint.
After three successive picks from the Russian side, we finally have our first name from Bologna grace our framework. The 11 points Kyle Weems helped himself to in a low scoring contest turned out to a defining moment, a performance which grew in stature given the circumstances it was transpired in.
He will be partnered up alongside Abass Awudu Abass. The side’s top scorer in that encounter, Abass’ ability to drop the offhanded shots with his crossovers and handles saw him accrue a steady 19 points on the day.
Power Forward
Not only was Giampaolo Ricci effective when dropping his spin and slams and alleyoops but he ended up with a neat 5 rebounds as well to convert the second chance points for his side.
Krasnodar elsewhere see us induct Stanislav Ilnitskiy in our side after his sensational 9 points and 6 rebounds.
Centre
After 19 points and 9 rebounds, Alan Williams needed no introduction in our team for the impending affair. The centre was a real force to be reckoned with, a player who went for the sucker punch right from minute one to emerge as an untenable player.
Star Player
His behemoth 21 points see Crawford be our star whilst Williams is the pro player.
