Karsiyaka vs Tofas Preview
Due to severe financial issues, Karsıyaka have faced the departure of nearly all their key players. This presents a perfect opportunity for Tofas to secure another victory and strengthen their position at the top of the standings.
They are unlikely to let this chance slip away, with the only question being the margin of their win.
Karsiyaka Form & Team News
With a record of 8 wins and 6 losses, Karşıyaka currently hold 7th place in the Turkish Basketball League standings.
They have suffered defeats in their last three games, but what worries all their players even more is the poor financial situation of the club, which has led to the departure of several key players.
Errick McCollum and James Webb are already playing for their new teams, while Damien Jefferson is also on the verge of securing a new engagement.
In the previous round, Karsıyaka suffered a heavy defeat on the road in Ankara against Türk Telekom, with a final score of 95:73.
Daron Russell scored 21 points, but he needed 18 attempts to do so, while the only other player with notable stats was center Muhsin Yasar, who scored 20 points with excellent shooting percentages.
It remains a big question whether the club's financial situation will improve anytime soon and if Karşıyaka will stay in the race for the playoffs.
Tofas Form & Team News
Tofas continue to perform well in the domestic league, riding the momentum of an excellent start to the season.
They currently hold a record of 11 wins and just 3 losses, which is enough for second place in the standings, behind the unstoppable Fenerbahce.
In their last round, Tofaş secured a routine 91:80 victory at home against Merkezefendi.
Once again, they were without a key player due to injury, but the team remained stable throughout all 40 minutes.
In his absence, the main offensive contributor was Marcquise Reed with 19 points, followed by O'Brien (17 pts), Pasečņiks (14 pts), Saybir (14 pts), and Bankston (11 pts).
Meanwhile, Tofas were also successful in the third-tier European competition, the FIBA Europe Cup, where they defeated Greek side Maroussi 77:74 on the road.
Head to Head
Karşıyaka have had much more success in head-to-head matchups against Tofas in recent years, but the club from Bursa claimed victory in the most recent encounter with a commanding 111:91 scoreline.
Verdict
In the coming period, they will have several games where they might try to snatch a win even with their depleted squad, but this is definitely not one of those games.
Tofaş are an experienced and well-drilled team that won’t miss the chance to secure another road victory.
