After the 93:85 success in Göttingen, the Central Germans started the game with a lot of self-confidence and led with 32:22 after twelve minutes. But suddenly the thread broke. Giessen was just ahead at the break. But the MBC played brilliantly for six minutes in the third quarter and converted a 56:57 (24th) into a comfortable 83:66 lead. The Weißenfelsers couldn’t take this advantage out of their hands in the last quarter, mainly thanks to their outstanding three-man quota (14 hits in 30 throws).
With their second win of the season, the “Wolves” jump to 12th place in the table. Shavon Coleman (27 hits), Michal Michalak (25) and Quinton Hooker (21) had the largest share of the success. On the Giessen side, Brandon Thomas and Jonathan Stark convinced with 22 points each. For the MBC, the away task at the Baskets Würzburg continues on Sunday.
