Tortona Team News
Tortona has become a real hit in Italian basketball in just two years in Serie A. In their debut season, they reached the semi-finals of the domestic competition, and now they have done a superb job again and finished the regular part of the competition in a high third position. That gave them home court advantage in this series against Trent.
Although statistically, they were only the ninth-best attack in Serie A, Tortona played outstanding defense, and thanks to the great editions on that side of the field, they fought for the top part of the table. When it comes to players, the first name of the team is former Baskonia playmaker Semaj Christon. He is averaging over 16 points and five assists and is the conductor of Tortona’s offense. J.P. Macura is the second fiddle, while Mike Daum plays an important role. Among the international players, there is the Croatian center Leon Radosevic, who brings great Euroleague experience.
Tortona will do everything possible to defend their home ground in the first two clashes with Trento. They want to repeat last season’s result, at least when they reached the semi-finals of Serie A, and anything below that would not live up to expectations.

Trento Team News
Trento returns to the Serie A playoffs after two years. Last season they took a modest 13th place in the domestic championship, and now they finished sixth with a record of 15-15. Considering how bad they looked in the Eurocup, this is a more than fair result.
Lele Molin has been sitting on the Trent bench for two years. He is known above all as a long-term assistant to Ettore Messina, with whom he won the Euroleague three times. Unlike Tortona, which primarily relies on American players, Trento is mainly carried by two Italians. It’s about Diego Flaccadori and Matteo Spagnolo. Both have a double-digit number of points on average, and we should not forget Drew Crawford, who was MVP of Serie A four years ago in a Cremona jersey.
Just entering the playoffs is more than a solid result for Trento, but once they’re there, they’ll try to fight for an appearance in the semifinals. Their defense is also a much stronger strength. However, for a triumph in Tortona, it will be necessary for them to score at good percentages from a distance.
