Basketball world champion Dennis Schröder has suffered another setback with his Brooklyn Nets in the NBA. The New York Knicks with German center Isaiah Hartenstein, however, remain on course for the playoffs.
Schröder’s Nets lost on Saturday (March 16, 2024 / local time) at the Indiana Pacers 100:121 and suffered their second defeat in a row in the fight for playoff participation in the North American professional league.
