Ludwigsburg’s basketball players are 14 points behind in Braunschweig – and win clearly in the end.
The German basketball star Dennis Schröder, as a shareholder, is significantly involved in the fortunes of the Löwen Braunschweig. He was still in the hall on Monday when he lost to Würzburg, but not on Sunday. In the end he might have been happy about it, because Braunschweig lost again, this time against the MHP giants Ludwigsburg 66:80 (38:31). They have thus brought in the third win in the third competitive game of the year.
Respect for the giants. Because they were already 14 points behind, but then Josh King’s sermon at the break obviously bore fruit. “He demanded that we get back to our basketball,” Isaiah Whitehead said after the game. He was sidelined during the week with an ankle injury and was now the Giants’ top scorer with 17 points, even missing six points from the free-throw line. That’s why the US professional wasn’t entirely satisfied with the result. “But I’ve only been here two and a half weeks and I’m still learning the system and my teammates.”
In any case, the start of the season is impressive, especially with the energy with which the team came back in Braunschweig, even if they still have to deal with stronger opponents than the lions (“We lacked energy and heart”, according to national player David Krämer). will get. It doesn’t have to be on Wednesday (7 p.m.) when the giants meet the newcomer from Rostock for their home premiere in the BBL.
