Russia (bbabo.net), - Basketball United League, in the championship of which eight Russian and four foreign clubs participate, informed about the postponement of three matches of the regular season at once for indefinite dates. The reasons are the unstable situation in Kazakhstan and the coronavirus epidemic.

The matches of Lokomotiv-Kuban (Krasnodar) with Kazakhstani Astana (it was scheduled for January 8), Astana matches with the Belarusian club Tsmoki-Minsk (January 15) and the meeting of the Polish team Zielona Gora on January 8 against Estonian "Kaleva" (Tallinn).

Games with Astana's participation have been postponed due to the unstable situation and the state of emergency in Kazakhstan; a number of positive tests for coronavirus have been identified in the ranks of Zielona-Gora.

In general, the calendar of the most important basketball tournaments for us in recent days is literally bursting at the seams. So, in the next round of the Euroleague championship, eight out of nine games will definitely not take place. The official calendar so far includes only the game "Milan" (Italy) - "Zenith" (St. Petersburg), scheduled for January 7 (at 22:30 Moscow time). But this confrontation is under threat: “Zenith” has already reported five positive tests (four - for the players, and one - for a representative of the staff). There is a high probability that this match will have to be postponed.
