Another defeat, with no sign of recovery. At the PalaSerradimigni Ludwigsburg prevailed 97-80 over a Dinamo team that appeared disheartened and needed quality and personality to straighten out an anonymous season.

The return to the market can no longer be postponed and among those suspected of being cut there is certainly the point guard Whittaker, who beyond a few flashes remains below the expected standards in terms of direction and leadership.

Quintet with Whittaker and Tyree but usual difficulties in attack (5-12 at 7') which are partly resolved by Tyree with his triples: 13-15 at 6'. The entry of Cappelletti in place of Whittaker accelerates the blue and white maneuver, but the defense continues to have empty passes: 18-24.

The gap rises to -13 in the 16th minute after the triples from the Germans who turn the ball around better in attack.

Better with the return of the Gombauld pivot. Charalampopoulos leads the mini comeback, but they are drops in the offensive desert of the Bank. It's also -15 when Childs steals the ball from McKinnie and goes to dunk.

After the interval, a flat encephalogram for Dinamo as they conceded to the Germans: 41-66 in the 24th minute. Only Tyree finds some baskets with individual initiatives.

Things change with the 3-2 zone (which will later become 2-3) which allows the away attack to take away the rhythm. The Bank halves the gap with Whittaker and McKinnie (68-80) but then the Germans score two triples and re-establish a safe margin.
