Ishchenko is the Best Young Player of the season!

I'm so happy for Seva! He's a gifted athlete, but talent means nothing without hard work and dedication. To achieve results, you need character, because only with character can a player truly shine on the court. Seva has all these qualities! It's great that Lokomotiv players have won the award for the fifth year in a row. This is the fruit of the joint efforts of our club Academy and the regional basketball school.

I thought it would be no big deal if I didn't win this award, but it turned out that I did. So, it's a great honor. I'd like to thank the VTB United League for the recognition, the club's coaching staff, management, doctors, and teammates for believing in me, and supporting me.
