Bristol, 10-16-2024

On the second matchday of the European North Basketball League, the Bamberg Baskets secured their second victory. In an away game against the Bristol Flyers, Head Coach Anton Gavel’s team won 69:79 (37:41) on Wednesday evening in the sold-out SGS College WISE Arena with 750 spectators.

In the first half, the spectators witnessed a game on equal footing. The lead and ball possession changed hands multiple times, with neither team able to pull away significantly. At halftime, Bamberg was narrowly ahead with 37:41. In the third quarter, Bamberg took control of the game, especially defensively, holding Bristol to just 10 points while MaCio Teague and Ronaldo Segu extended Bamberg’s lead to double digits (45:60). In the final quarter, Bamberg slowed down a bit. The English team caught up point by point, and after an 18:8 run, they were only trailing 65:68 with 3:43 minutes left. However, the hosts’ rising hopes were quickly dashed by Bamberg’s Ibrahim Watson. The forward scored nine of his total 17 points in just 86 seconds, securing the decisive 69:79 lead with 1:23 minutes remaining.
