18:30
Michael Kessens uses the next two free throws from the baskets, in total there are already attempts nine and ten. So far, Bayern has not been allowed to go to the free-throw line.

Quarter conclusion:
Bonn got off to a better start in the game and was able to do a lot more offensively, especially from the three-way line.

18:26
Bayern are speculating on taking time off the clock with the last attack. But that goes horribly wrong: Bonn uses the eight-second difference between the shot clock and the quarter clock and is successful again with a Morgan three!
9.
18:24
TJ Shorts suffered a minor injury. Of course, the alarm bells are ringing on the Bonn side, especially since the squad isn’t the widest.

18:23
On the other hand, Niels Giffey leaves the threesome. The weak rate from afar was a big problem against Baskonia.
8th.
18:22
Jeremy Morgan with a three from the right halffield! The Bayern offensive is still not really gaining momentum.
7.
18:18

7.
18:17

6.
18:14

5.
18:13
Williams makes up for his mistake with a three from the left corner. He absolutely wanted it!

18:10
Tuomas Iisalo changes again, but this time out of necessity: Collin Malcolm has a twisted ankle and has to be treated on the sidelines.

18:09
After less than three minutes, Tuomas Iisalo already makes three personnel changes. His team is 7:3 in the lead.

18:08
Bayern is not yet in the opposing pick and roll. To make matters worse, the shot clock runs out in your own attack.
2.
18:07
TJ Shorts makes the game’s first exclamation mark with a difficult three from the right!

18:07
Contrary to popular belief, the Baskets are not among the fastest teams in the league either – the Rhinelanders are 16th in this statistic, with Bayern bringing up the rear. And indeed, the game doesn’t exactly start at a fast pace.

18:05
First possession goes to the home side.
18:04
Today’s Starting Five: Finn Delany, Leon scratches, Jeremy Morgan, TJ Shorts and Karsten Tadda start for the baskets. While Bonn is at its best, only Vladimir Lučić and Augustine Rubit are missing at Bayern. Isaac Bonga, Freddie Gillespie, Andreas Obst, Nick Weiler-Babb and Paul Zipser make up the starting line-up.
17:59
One reason for Bayern’s poor offensive performance in the EuroLeague was the plight of injuries: Vladimir Lucic, Nick Weiler-Babb and Augustine Rubit were several top performers unavailable.
17:48
In the Basque Country, the low shooting rate was the downfall for Bayern. So numerous offensive rebounds could not be used. Today, the Trinchieri protégés meet the team in Bonn with the best throw rate in the league – 51 percent of all throws from the baskets find their target.
17:45
Both teams were challenged internationally during the week – with varying degrees of success: Bonn made it safely into the Champions League round of 16 with an 89-80 win at Pinar Karsiyaka, Bayern was only challenged on Friday in the EuroLeague at Baskonia and traveled after the clear 53: 78 defeat straight to the Rhineland.
17:32
Top duel in the BBL! The Baskets Bonn welcome FC Bayern Basketball. This is the first meeting since the semi-final series in the preseason playoffs. It starts at 6 p.m. in the former capital!
