Strasbourg vs Obradoiro Odds
Strasbourg Team News
Team play and an evenly distributed playing time, along with on-court performance, have been the hallmark of Strasbourg in this tournament. This season’s addition, Phil Booth, is the team’s top scorer, averaging 17 points. Alongside him, several players are in double digits – Leopold Cavaliere, Chaundee Brown, Quinton Hooker, and the experienced Paul Lacombe, who is also the team’s leading rebounder. Strasbourg won both matches in tight and suspenseful finishes, which can serve as additional motivation and confidence for the team to achieve their set goals.
Strasbourg has lived up to the expectations they set for themselves so far, although one more victory is needed for a complete success. The upcoming opponent is the toughest they’ve faced so far, but the confidence gained in the previous two matches, combined with the undisputed quality they possess, should be enough for a win.
Obradoiro Team News
After a somewhat slow start in the preparations, the Obradoiro has now won four consecutive matches. They secured a victory in the last preparatory game, followed by a win in the first round of the Endesa League against Palencia. Finally, they achieved two wins in this tournament against Mornar Bar and Legia.
At the moment, the Obradoiro is led by two players who had the shortest breaks, as they represented their respective countries in the recently concluded FIBA World Cup. Jordan Howard, who played for Puerto Rico, is the top scorer with 16.5 points per game. Right behind him with 16 points is Rigoberto Mendoza, who played for the Dominican Republic. However, he didn’t play in the second match against Legia, so it remains to be seen if he’ll be in the lineup for the final. It’s also worth highlighting the contributions of Thomas Scrubb and the young Lithuanian Marek Blazevic.
Obradoiro certainly aims to secure a spot in the group stage of the FIBA Basketball Champions League. Especially now that they are very close to achieving that goal. Their advantage lies in the fact that in the first two rounds, they secured wins much more easily compared to their opponent today.
