After the clear defeat in Würzburg, Syntainics MBC can secure relegation in the Basketball Bundesliga early on Saturday. Coach Predrag Krunic’s team needs a win against Ludwigsburg on Saturday afternoon (3:30 p.m. / Dyn), and in the evening third-from-bottom Heidelberg needs a defeat against Ulm. Then the MBC would have two wins ahead of Heidelberg two game days before the end of the season and would also prevail in a direct comparison. Also in the event of an MBC victory, a defeat of the penultimate Crailsheim against Bamberg would be enough.
In Würzburg, the MBC held its own for a half and even led 48:45 shortly before the break. In the third quarter, the Weißenfels team collapsed and in the end the score was 83:107. Charles Callison’s eleven points and ten assists at his old place of work were not enough for the MBC. It was the first double double for the best team from Weißenfels this season.
«We didn’t play well in the second half, especially in defense. Würzburg is a strong team with a good rhythm. “They hit a lot of shots today and after falling behind it was difficult to get back into the game,” said Krunic. We are now focusing on the last three games.
