A very important event for Georgian basketball will occur tomorrow morning. After a long pause, clubs of Georgian basketball players will play against each other in NBA. Hopefully, we will see Zaza Pachulia and Tornike Shengelia on the arena.
“Brooklyn Nets” of Shengelia arrived in Georgia and is preparing for the upcoming game. This game will be held on “Philips Arena” at 04:30 Tbilisi time. Tornike is with his team and the main issue is that if he gets in the list for tomorrow’s game.
P.J. Carlesimo, head coach of “Brooklyn”, did not put the Georgian forward in the lists of the last two games. The team of Shengelia won last 7 games. Overall, Carlesimo won 9 from 10 games.
Now “Brooklyn” (23 wins, 15 losses) is in the 4th place in Eastern Conference and is 2 places ahead of “Atlanta”.
The captain of the Georgian national team wrote on his official page of “Facebook”: “Tomorrow is a great day. After several years two Georgians are on NBA game again. My brother Tornike Shengelia arrives in Atlanta”. Soon “Toko” commented: “I have arrived… see you tomorrow…”.
“Hawks” and “Nets” will hold the next game against each other. On January 19 “Atlanta” will visit “Brooklyn” and Tornike Shengelia will host Zaza Pachulia.
