«Starting against the league leaders also means having a great opportunity to turn the season around»: this is how Brandon Jefferson presents his debut against Venezia, tomorrow at the PalaSerradimigni starting at 7.30pm.

The new American point guard has confidence inversely proportional to his 175cm height: «I am very happy to be here in Sassari which has a great tradition and it was natural to accept. I'm ready to lend a hand to this group to start winning again. I make my leadership and experience available, the ability to manage the pace and the game, more control."

Three former Dinamo players play among the guests: the Sassari point guard Spissu, the winger Brooks and the center Tessitori. Four if we add president Casarin, playmaker in the A2 days.

On paper there shouldn't be any story, but at least within friendly walls Bucchi's team put on some brilliant matches and who knows whether the heated rivalry with Venice will do the rest.
