Ferran Bassas: "Our objective is to keep Spain in the first position of the ranking"

MADRID, 21 Feb. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The Spanish international Ferran Bassas has assured that the team's objective in this 'window' for next summer's World Cup, with the classification already tied, is to "continue keeping Spain in the first position" of the FIBA ​​ranking, as well as "win the two games" against Iceland and Italy.

"It is a pleasure to be here and wear the shirt and share these moments with so much national talent. We are happy. We will go to win both games and give our best," said the statements provided by the Spanish Basketball Federation (FEB) in the concentration of 'the Family' in Alicante.

Sergio Scariolo's men face the last 'window' of the qualifying phase for the World Championship, in which they will face Iceland this Thursday in Reykjavík (8:45 p.m.) and Italy on Sunday at the Multipurpose Pavilion in Cáceres (6:00 p.m. ).

"Being here is always positive, we love sharing these 'windows'. Although we already have the mathematical classification, our goal is to continue keeping Spain in the first position in the ranking," said the point guard from Gran Canaria.

In addition, Bassas stressed that the Italian coach always takes into account the attitude of the players in these concentrations, with whom he also has in summer despite already having those who play in the NBA and the Euroleague already available. "Sergio has already shown that many players who go through the 'windows' later have the opportunity to be in competitions in the summer. We are all here eager to give our best and show what we are capable of," he concluded.
