The roster of the Eurohoops team didn’t perform as expected since, despite the amazing performance from Luka Doncic, who offered 90.2 points as the captain, the other key players did not perform as well.
Nicolo Melli with 6.6 points, Nick Calathes with 3 but also Thomas Robinson with 5.5, are characteristic examples. The overall crop then, was 166.9 points, which means that we are going to take some corrective action with the aim of improving the team for the clashes that start in a few hours.
The changes for Round 4
The first and most important trade concerns Edgaras Ulanovas, who has been on the roster from the beginning of the season but for whom the time has come to be replaced. Krunoslav Simon, who is coming off an excellent game against Fenerbahce and who can continue at the same level at home against CSKA, will take his place.
Aside from him, Thomas Robinson will give his place to Chris Singleton because, in the game against Fenerbahce, the American can make the difference and gather points in the areas of rebounding and scoring.
The last and particularly important move will be in the power forward position. Nicolo Melli will not continue on the roster as he will be replaced by Georgios Printezis. The Greek forward is expected to have a difficult task against Khimki’s powerful frontline, but he might score a lot, draw fouls and contribute a lot of points.
Luka Doncic will keep the armband, while Erick Green will now be second in command.
