The Towers are threatened with relegation in the Bundesliga. The games in the EuroCup are only an exhausting burden for Hamburg’s basketball players in the delicate situation.
In the case of the London Lions, it was a meaningless bankruptcy in a broken game with 66:83 (30:42). Only one thing was important: nobody got hurt!
Because on Saturday the first final for staying up in the league will take place against Bayreuth at the bottom (6 p.m., Magenta Sport).
“I like what our team did today,” said coach Benka Barloschky (35). “We fought and we had a couple of good runs. We had many chances. That’s what we’re looking for.”
Leader Lukas Meisner (27) stayed sick in Hamburg. In view of the catastrophic performances of the last few weeks, the game in the Olympic Park was even okay. Always tried defensively, but this time totally helpless and harmless on the offensive. The best thrower was the unstable Yoeli Childs (25/14 points).

Promoted to boss Barloschky has now lost nine games out of ten but is out of the question with boss Marvin Willoughby (45).
The totally broken squad therefore urgently needs fresh blood.
Willoughby is looking for an experienced playmaker and a defensively strong center. The head of sports should sign three men for the BBL by the end of March. But time is pressing. Because Saturday is the most important game of the season.
