Third day of the Basketball without Borders Europe camp, held in Barcelona, and the group of 1993 and 1994 borned players practiced again in the Ciutat Esportiva of FC Barcelona with morning skills stations, but tougher and more difficult than the previous days. Today they've worked different things, like the shot after the pick-and-roll, defense position at ball and weak side, low post defense,... At the afternoon two games were played, where we could see the potential of a great group of prospects.

 

Who shined today? Polish 7-feet center Przemek Karnowski ('93), local Josep Pérez ('94), montenegrin Nikola Ivanovic ('94), russian Vlad Trushkin ('93), serbian Nenad Miljenovic, polish Mateusz Ponitka ('93), czech Martin Kriz ('93), italian Francesco Candussi ('94), danish Rasmus Larsen ('94) and russian Sergey Karasev ('93). In one of the games Pérez and Ivanovic played together in the same team, feeling very comfortable, and becoming unstoppable for the defense. With them Trushkin shined running the floor quick and using his physical body. In the opposite team Karnowski showed his skills, with good shooting range and nice moves at low post. We also have seen good shooters like Ponitka, Karasev and Kriz, scoring easy from outside. And of course Miljenovic, number 1 at Eurohopes'93, talked in the court. Finally Candussi and Larsen sent us good sensations again. They are similar prospects, with great bodies and really interesting potential.
