Rostock (dpa / mv) - The Rostock Seawolves have suffered their second defeat in the basketball Bundesliga. On Sunday, the promoted team lost 86:97 (49:47) to Brose Bamberg, who had not won in five games so far. The best thrower in the team of head coach Christian Held was Tyler Nelson (19).
The guests had a better start to the game and clearly won the first quarter thanks to four sunk threes. The Seawolves, on the other hand, didn't have a long-range goal to show for themselves. At the beginning of the second quarter, the gap grew to 14 points, but the Seawolves didn't give up. Finally it was Nijal Pearson who put his team ahead with two free throws to 41:40.
After the break, the Mecklenburgers were initially the more effective team, but then they ran into problems again and had to go into the final section with a deficit of 69:72. In this, Bamberg quickly pulled away to eight points. Too much for Rostock, who couldn't turn the tide and were clearly inferior in the end.
