Its head coach, Dmitry Zabirchenko, spoke about the difficulties with signing players for Kyiv-Basket.

\? We'll watch. You understand the situation in our country. It’s a little calmer in the western regions, but if a legionnaire comes to Kyiv, where there is no shelling or light, he will say: “Guys, I left, life is more valuable.”. Williamson left Dnepr the same way. Another one didn't even arrive, as I understand it. The legionnaire left Lutsk, but, I think, not because of the war. There are other reasons, but in principle it is very difficult. I understand when a player says that he is ready to come, but there is one or two shellings, there is no light, water and something else, transport does not go because there is no electricity.

Of course it's very difficult. If there are such players and they are ready to come, we will consider options. Today in Kyiv we slept peacefully, unlike other areas. But there is still concern. Wife in Kyiv, sister there.

During an alarm, you worry about where it is flying - you look. Today the martyrs flew to Troyeshchyna to the house of the father of my assistant’s wife. The windows were blown out, everything was blown out. We know what time we live in,” the coach noted..
