Alex Laurent and his team Klosterneuburg have had a perfect start into the season in the first Austrian league. They lead the standings as the only unbeaten team. However, the team has been elimintaed in the cup competition.
„We had a very bad night in the cup game, we had injury problems, one of our key players left the game early, we could not find our rhythm and the opponent (Traiskirchen) hit everything. Now we can fully focus on the championship where we took revenge against the same opponent a few days later and showed that we are the better team.“
Right now, the first Austrian league is not interrupted, even if some games had to be cancelled, including Klosterneuburg’s last game: „Our game last weekend against Kapfenberg was cancelled because the opponent has Covid-cases in their team. We practiced normally and had a scrimmage against each other on Saturday to stay in rhythm. In general, we are very happy that our league is not interrupted and that we can continue to play. »
Alex is currently averaging 8.6 points, 2.6 rebounds and 1 assist per game this season. Alex is feeling comfortable and says that he settled in very well with his new team so far.
The next game for Klosterneuburg will be on Thursday-night against the Timberwolves, a team that has lost 4 out of 5 games this season.
