Pure relief spread among the players and managers of the Black Forest Panthers after the 75:63 home win against the Kangaroos from Leitershofen. The ProB team showed above all defensive unity and finally utilized their potential more consistently.

The ProB team showed above all defensive unity and finally utilized their potential more consistently. “We now have to improve in the next games, otherwise the win won’t be worth anything,” warned Daniel Mayr shortly after the end of the game. Thanks to the home win, the Panthers were able to hand over the red lantern to Breitengüßbach, but as second to last they are still in a relegation zone.

FC Bayern Basketball

The Schwenningen basketball players can improve on Thursday (6 p.m.). The people of the Twin Cities will meet a big name. FC Bayern Basketball has caused a sensation in the Basketball Bundesliga since promotion in 2011, winning three championships and three cups.

The Munich team primarily uses the second team so that their many talents can gain match practice in the ProB. Bayern finished the last two seasons in last place in the southern division of the ProB. They were only able to stay in the league due to the league expansion and the withdrawal of the teams from Hanau and Elchingen.

Emir Mutapcic

With Emir Mutapcic, FC Bayern’s reserves are looked after by a very experienced coach who won three German championships with Alba Berlin in 2001, 2002 and 2003. Under him, young talents like Ivan Khartchenkov and Martin Kalu should take the next steps in their development.

In addition to Khartchenkov and Kalu, both of whom are also part of the Munich first team squad, new signing Dino Radoncic also stands out. At 24 years old, the Montenegrin international is by far the most experienced player in Mutapcic’s squad.

The return

For Daniel Mayr and Jeremia Agyepong, Thursday’s game means a return to their old place of work. While Mayr wore Bayern’s red jersey from 2014 to 2016, Agyepong played in Munich’s ProB team for the past two years.

“In Munich we want to build on the game against Leitershofen,” says managing director and player Daniel Mayr, setting out the route.

“With Khartchenkov and Radocic, Bayern have two players who also play for the first team in the Euroleague and regularly strengthen the ProB team. However, we must not allow ourselves to be impressed by this. Personally, I’m looking forward to returning to my old living room and being able to play against my former assistant coach Emir Mutapcic.”
