Command Analysis

Aris BSA

Current form
The Greek club continues to experience difficulties in the current Eurocup. Ioannis Kastritis charges occupy the penultimate place in the table, having won only three games in 11 rounds. In the last match, Aris lost to Türk Telekom (77:87) in an away match, where they lacked both concentration and confident play in attack.
The team relies on players like James Banks and Sharif Cooper, but even their efforts are often not enough. The next match against Lietkabelis is a crucial one for the Greeks, especially given the support of the stands. A win could be a turning point, but it will require a significant improvement in the execution of attacks.
