BBL: Bamberg’s First Home Win of the Season!

Bamberg, 11-03-2024

There it is: the first home win of the new season! On their third attempt, the Bamberg Baskets managed to secure their first points of the season on Sunday afternoon on their home court. In the duel against the team from ALBA BERLIN, Head Coach Anton Gavel’s team deservedly won 87:82 (39:34) on the 7th matchday of the BBL in front of 5,117 spectators at the BROSE ARENA.

Both teams were under pressure after a disappointing start to the season (Bamberg 1:3, Berlin 2:3) and gave nothing away on the field. The lead changed twelve times until the end of the third quarter, with neither team able to pull ahead by more than six points. However, in the final quarter, Bamberg made smart offensive decisions and kept their opponents in check with aggressive defense. Keyshawn Feazell hit an important three-pointer and immediately followed it with a dunk to make it 66:58. Then MaCio Teague and Ronaldo Segu got hot, extending the lead to double digits (72:62) with four minutes remaining. The match-winner was Bamberg’s top scorer Ibrahim Watson (23 points), who secured the victory in the last 90 seconds with two three-pointers and three free throws.

On Friday, November 8, 2024, the Bamberg Baskets will be challenged away at Rasta Vechta. Tip-off is at 8:00 PM.
