Nico Laprovittola’s Thoughts on Barça’s Improvement
Nico Laprovittola Reflects on Barça’s Growth
After Barça’s thrilling victory at the Palau against Partizan, Nicolás Laprovittola hopped in front of the Movistar+ microphone to spill the beans about how things are shaping up for the team and for himself. Right now, Barça has a record of 14-7, having clinched victory in seven out of their last nine Euroleague matches.
Feeling Good and Finding Comfort
“I’m having a blast lately! The team has a ton of options and plenty of situations where I feel right at home. They keep passing me the ball, which I absolutely love. I’m enjoying the game and working hard to stay healthy.”
About Coach Xavi’s Impact
“Xavi gives us a sense of calm when we’re out there doing our thing. He provides reasons and explanations for every decision we make on the court. Our game style has really changed to be much more controlled, and we truly know our direction. Plus, with the talent in our squad, Xavi is dishing out solutions on the floor to bring out the best in each of us.”
Dealing with Injury Recovery
On his lengthy recovery process after injury: “During my recovery, I kept my mind busy with lots of stuff, but I was always focused on getting back and how to do it right. I worked with someone to keep me mentally sharp, so I’d be ready to hit the court again. I reflect a lot on my previous playing style and try to adapt. It’s not about being as explosive; it’s about using my head more. I focus on seeing game situations where my teammates can shine too—so it’s not just about me getting the edge.”
Ready for the Upcoming Clásico
On the upcoming Clásico: “It’s going to be super tough! It’s tricky to talk about next week when this week isn’t even wrapped up yet. Let’s be real, we need to play exceptionally well if we’re going to take down Real Madrid. We must dominate every aspect of the game, and that’s no easy feat. They are also improving a lot and tightening things up on their end, so we’ve got to bring our A-game just like last week. We need to start strong and pay attention to all the little details!”
