The second in the main round defeated the Hamburg Towers 89:81 (37:46) and had significantly fewer problems than in the first game, when victory came only after extra time and with a last-second three.
Peter Jackson-Cartwright was again the best man in Bonn and scored 41 points. On Friday he had shone with 36 points. Game three of the series will now take place on Friday (7 p.m. / Magentasport) in Hamburg. If the Bonners also win away, the series ends in the quarter-finals. A possible semi-final opponent would then be FC Bayern Munich.
