The General Director of BC Khimki Victor Bychkov said, that the injury of Maciej Lampe forced to search new center.
-It is difficult to find strong player during so not long period of time. I think Varda is excellent variant for help our team in Lampe absence. Doctors said, that Maciej would get rehabilitated in 6 weeks. During this period of time we have many difficult matches, including the second group stage in Eurocup.
Ratko is very experienced player with the spirit of winner. He played in strong European clubs and in NBA.
