Thursday 1st April games
Hereda San Pablo Burgos vs. Igokea
There is a quick turnaround on this game, as these sides clashed on Tuesday night. There was a surprise in store as Hereda lost for the first time, with Igokea hauling themselves back into contention.
It was a close-run thing with just two points splitting the teams. This result will no doubt give Igokea a confidence boost coming into the second game, but surely Hereda will be determined to avoid a blowout against their opponents? Tenerife will be watching on closely.
Casademont Zaragoza vs. ERA Nymburk
The hosts have a 3-1 record, and they lead the group, but Nymburk have a 3-0 record, and sit just behind. This is set to be a tantalising game in Group L, and one that is likely to define who comes out on top.
Brose Bamberg vs. Dinamo Sassari
Both of these sides lost on Tuesday, and ain all likelihood, they are playing to avoid the bottom spot. However, that doesn’t mean it will be less exciting or important, and this could be a fascinating game of basketball.
The new champions in the Basketball Champions League (BCL) are the same as last season’s champions. Yes, Hereda San Pablo Burgos have regained their title, bringing the Final 8 in Nizhny Novgorod to a thrilling climax. The final was held on Sunday 9th May, and the game finished: Pinar Karsiyaka 59-64 Hereda San Pablo Burgos...
