When he was 13, Franz Wagner definitely wanted to become a professional basketball player, as he says. Over the years, the dream of a former young Alba player has turned into a goal that he could soon achieve: in the best basketball league in the world. By Lynn Kraemer
In the final quarter, the Munich team had to do without Wade Baldwin early on, who got the second technical foul after a bump against Malte Delow. Encouraged by the fact that one of their best throwers (13 points) had to sit on the bench, the Munich team turned it up again. Markus Eriksson referred the guests back to an eight-point gap with his sixth successful three. But the quarter belonged to the Bavarians, who got their fouls under control and waited for their chance. With two minutes to go, James Gist equalized. Alba couldn’t find an answer and Munich took the lead. Maodo Lo, who had remained inconspicuous until then, brought Alba back with a two and a three. Fourteen seconds before the end he put another three to the 89-86 victory.

For the albatrosses it was the 80th game of the season across all competitions. For Bayern No. 87. But there is not much time to rest or for tactical changes. In less than 24 hours, the two teams face each other again. The second game will take place on Thursday (June 10th, 8:30 pm) in the Mercedes-Benz Arena. In order to shorten the travel distances during the pandemic, the teams always stay two playoff games in a row in one place. The Berliners travel to Munich only for the third game.
