However, it only became clear in the final quarter that the strong offensive Berliners won 29:14. The best thrower of the game was Bayreuth’s Sacar Anim with 20 points.
Another place ahead of the Berliners was the BG Göttingen, which later in the evening came out on top with 86:79 at s.Oliver Würzburg. The Lower Saxony were ripped off and now have eight wins this season, but completed one game less.
The MLP Academics Heidelberg are in a negative vortex. Despite a decent performance, the newcomer was defeated by ratiopharm Ulm 79:84 in the Baden-Württemberg duel. It was the eighth consecutive defeat for the Heidelberg team, while the strong away team from Ulm underscored their playoff ambitions.
This also applies to the Niners Chemnitz and the MHP Riesen Ludwigsburg. The Saxons beat the Fraport Skyliners in Frankfurt after a tough fight with 82:78 after extra time. Ludwigsburg won 88:81 at Brose Bamberg. The Upper Franconia are in a form low with six bankruptcies in a row and are also waiting for the first victory in the fourth game under the new coach Oren Amiel.
