News: Blatt to leave Russian bench

The Russian federation will have to start looking for another head coach, as David Blatt is to step down. The decision was announced after the difficult win yesterday over Ivory Coast (72-66) at the World Championship in Turkey. The 51-year-old American-Israeli described the decison as personal and did not provide further explanations. The Russians have for now two wins and one loss and are second in Group B of the tournament.
Hired in 2006, Blatt led Russian to a gold metal at Eurobasket 2007, finished ninth at the Beijing Olympics and seventh at Eurobasket last year. He was recently appointed coach of Israeli giants Maccabi Tel Aviv and previously coached defunct Dynamo Saint Petersburg, Benetton Treviso, Efes Pilsen and Dynamo Moscow.

News: Suárez will move to Real Madrid

One of the biggest hopes of Spanish basketball is set to stay in Madrid but will change clubs. Real Madrid and Estudiantes reached an agreement for the transfer of Carlos Suárez to the Blancos after months of intense negociation and speculation which also included Barcelona. The 24-year-old forward will sign a four-year deal with the Spanish giants and is expected to be officially presented next week after the medical tests. The numbers of the side change are of about 800 thousand Euros.
A product of Estudiantes, Suárez played for none other than his former club until now. Last season he averaged 11 points, 5.5 rebounds and 2.4 assists over 35 games in the Spanish league, being named to the season's first team. He was part of Spain's preliminary squad for the 2010 World Championship.
