Chinanu has revealed what’s been the main reason for Zadar’s resurrection lately in the regional competition. For sure it is the team performance of all his teammates: “We have been playing together as a team. We’re getting more and more comfortable on the court in each and every game, so if we are going to continue to play as a team on both ends of the court and continue to rebound well, we’re going to have a good season.” 

And what about the rest of the season? “We want to go out for every game and try to win every single one of them. We need to play as hard as we can. There’s no particular goal on my mind, we just need to give our best and see where this takes us,” Onuaku told about the goals for the final 7 rounds.
