Indeed, Motley leads Fenerbahce with 4.3 fouls won per game in 19:16 minutes, a significant difference compared to Lessort\u2019s 29:32. &#8220;He has to play defense as well as I have to play defense. I think I can wear him out.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Motley also highlighted the depth of Fenerbahce&#8217;s roster as an advantage. &#8220;The difference about our team is that he [Lessort] has three bigs he has to guard. He doesn\u2019t have to just worry about me. He\u2019s got to worry about Sanli and about Papagiannis,&#8221; Motley added. &#8220;Our team is well-coached and we are deep. We have a deep roster. A lot of guys who can do different things. In the EuroLeague, that helps you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eurohoops.net\/en\/euroleague\/1675438\/johnathan-motley-wants-to-fight-fire-with-fire-against-mathias-lessort\/\">Source: Eurohoops.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Johnathan Motley, centro del Fenerbahce Beko, ha parlato della prossima semifinale di EuroLeague contro il Panathinaikos<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":146,"featured_media":307935,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_spbk_hide_featured":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[199],"tags":[],"rumors":[],"typology":[],"posizionamento":[],"class_list":["post-389308","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-euroleague"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/12\/015__2K_8996.jpg","digistream_id":0,"digistream":false,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/389308","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/146"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=389308"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/389308\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/307935"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=389308"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=389308"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=389308"},{"taxonomy":"rumors","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/rumors?post=389308"},{"taxonomy":"typology","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/typology?post=389308"},{"taxonomy":"posizionamento","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posizionamento?post=389308"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
