We asked the young Loko guard about his impressions of his debut for the main team and his expectations for the game with Astana.
- Now that the fuss about the start of the VTB United League season have already settled down, can you tell us what do you feel about your debut?
- Very positive. It was really cool. Our team won, and I managed to score my first points. Seva [Ishchenko] and I have bought some pizza for the team to celebrate our debut.
- A game with Astana will be very soon. What can you say about this team?
- The team has changed a lot – they got new legionnaires and three Russian players. We're going to listen to what the coaching staff will tell us about them during the video sessions. Let's not forget that Astana lost their first game. So they will come to Krasnodar to take some revenge.
- Are you ready for this?
- Of course, we are ready. We understand that every team wants to win as much as possible at the start of the season to gain confidence. But we also have a great reason to play hard – it's our home court, and we must defend it.
