Even the Russian club, which has snapped a 17-game losing streak in the EuroLeague, is back on the road to victory, but not facing off-field problems.
According to Russian press reports, Latvian Janis Timma, who plays for Chimki, had a conflict with team coach Andrejs Malcevs when he decided not to include the basketball player in the top five in the United League game against Zeliona Gura.
The angry gamer refused to participate in the duel and went home without warning.
The Latvians also did not appear this Tuesday in the Euroleague match against Real Madrid.
Although both J. Timma and Chimki’s team refrained from commenting on this situation, forward Stanislav Rizhov’s agent decided to break the silence.
“It just came to our attention then. Of course, commenting on the details is highly unethical, but there has been a misunderstanding between the player and the coach and they have to resolve this issue themselves by personally communicating with each other.
The team got into a very big hole. It is already the case in sport that some rejoice in victories and others suffer harsh defeats.
In a chimki situation, everyone is under stress, and being in that position makes it very difficult to keep a cool mind.
I hope that the victory over Real is a good reason to dispel all misunderstandings and finish the season successfully competing in the United League tournament.
I don’t think anyone wants to lose a strong basketball team in Russia, knowing that there are not many in this country, “Intercept Telegram quoted the agent as saying.
J.Timma scores an average of 7.1 points per game in 24 minutes this season and accumulates 5.6 utility points.
