I feel comfortable with my basketball team and we can only get better Riders coach Rob Paternostro

Leicester Riders head coach Rob Paternostro says his side head into Sunday's away game with Milton Keynes Lions brimming with confidence.

"We feel good," Paternostro told BBC Radio Leicester. "Over the last three or four weeks we have started to understand who we are as a team.

"We have got our confidence back and know which direction we are heading.

"I like the way we are playing. We are in the conversation with a lot of other teams for the top four positions."

He added: "But more importantly, I feel comfortable with my basketball team and we can only get better.

"A lot of teams are struggling with injuries right now.

"Anything can happen, but not only do I feel that there no injures right now, I feel like we are pretty fresh and in pretty good shape. We have some young guys and a lot of depth and I feel like that is helping us out."
