Danang Dragons was hit with a double penalty: Difficulties piled up for the "dragon of the Han River"

According to the official announcement from the Vietnam Professional Basketball League (VBA), Danang Dragons will lose two important points in the home match against Cantho Catfish taking place on the evening of August 9.

Foreign defender Jermaine Marrow, who is at the top of the Dragons team in nearly every stat, will be suspended for 1 match for having committed all 3 technical errors.

In particular, the two errors came less than 1 minute apart in the Dragons match as a guest at Ho Chi Minh City Wings on Sunday.

Without Marrow, which has created many difficulties for Danang Dragons, the Han River team also lost another important name, head coach Todd Purves.

The American teacher will be banned from directing for 1 match because he has committed all 3 technical errors. The most recent error Coach Todd Purves received in the match against City Wings on August 6 was due to a reaction to the referee.

Thus, Danang Dragons will compete with only one foreign soldier, Jairus Holder, and at the same time nominate assistant coach Vu The Cang to take the position of captain in the reception for Cantho Catfish on the evening of August 9.

In the immediate future, there will be another difficult barrier called Cantho Catfish, the team has the strongest squad and is very thirsty to win to continue to raise Playoffs hope.

The match between Danang Dragons and Cantho Catfish will take place at 19:30 tonight (August 9) at Son Tra district, Da Nang city.
