Virtus, Pajola in the future. He is the captain of the National Team

La Virtus will be back in the gym tomorrow, but Dusko Ivanovic will still have to deal with absences related to ailments and, above all, to commitments National. In this window, the Italian coach Pozzecco has decided to rejuvenate the team to evaluate new profiles. Or in any case to test guys he already knows at a high level. Achille Polonara stayed at home, but from tomorrow another guy originally from Ancona will join the Italian team. And for Alexander Pajola (pictured Ciamillo), who in black and white for militancy and spirit of sacrifice, carries with him the label of captain Futuro, first real proof of leadership. In Virtus the ranks remain on the shoulders of Marco Belinelli. In blue, at least on this occasion, it will be the turn of the number 6 in black and white who, given the appearances accumulated so far, seems truly destined to rewrite pages of history for the Black V.

In blue, with Pajola, there will also be Nicola Akele and Momo Diouf. But the Montenegrin coach will also have to give up three other elements who are taking the road to their respective national teams. We are talking about Andrejs Grazulis (Latvia), Toko Shengelia (Georgia) and Isaia Cordinier (France).

Will Clyburn will not be available, while Ante Zizic will start to get some minutes back in his legs, who, together with Diouf, is the only real center of the black and white club. Matt Morgan will also return to the group, having recovered from his flu attack. And Justin Holiday will not be left behind, who after the anonymous match of the Italian Cup, absolutely needs to shake off some rust due to inactivity before accepting the black and white proposal.

The Lega Basket, in the meantime, has set the times and days of the next rounds. On March 2, the match between Virtus and Olimpia Milano is scheduled for 18,15:9 p.m. On paper, Virtus should have played, again at the Segafredo Arena, the following Sunday, March 20. The Fiera remains the home court, but the match with the team that is now the league leader in Serie A has been moved to 10 p.m. on Monday, March XNUMX.
