Season 2022/23
Despite the fact that in the standings of pool 'B' Enisey is on the 4th line, in five extreme duels Krasnoyarsk took a serious pace of the game and suffered only 1 defeat. Drazen Anzulovic's team lost to Avtodor (82:86) and won over Minsk residents (69:42), PARMA-PARI (81:76), Samara (74:69), and in the match on March 3 took revenge over Avtodor with a score of 73:58.
In a two-week break between games, the club's players Timofei Gerasimov and Sergey Balashov were announced for the games of the Russian national team. Timofey Gerasimov also took part in the VTB United League Stars Match as part of New School and the Olimpbet three-point competition. And the center of Enisey Roman Zagretdinov went on loan to the Uralmash Super League team (Ekaterinburg).
In the game against Avtodor (which our team will face in the next match on March 12 at home), Enisey demonstrated that they are ready to fight for all theoretical chances of getting into the playoffs, so they will not concede in the mood to win the remaining matches.
The most productive Krasnoyarsk players are Angelo Warner (14.3 points, 4.4 rebounds, 4.4 assists, 1.5 steals), James Thompson (10.4 points, 7.1 rebounds) and Timofei Gerasimov (9.0 points, 4.1 rebounds, 3.7 assists).
