Cologne (SID) – Defending champion Alba Berlin won the catch-up game of the Basketball Bundesliga (BBL) at Syntainics MBC Weißenfels with difficulty and secured second place in the table with his 20th win of the season. The gap to leader Bonn is only two points after 87:77 (36:37) with one game less. The best thrower for the Berliners was national player Maodo Lo with 25 points.
