dallas – The German NBA professionals all suffered defeats that night. It was most evident in the Orlando Magic’s 85:108 win against the Dallas Mavericks. The team around the two world champions Franz Wagner and Moritz Wagner as well as NBA newcomer Tristan da Silva fell behind at the end of the first quarter and never recovered. The Mavericks, who were missing Maxi Kleber with an injury, were now 33 points ahead. Luka Doncic scored 32 points for the hosts, while Franz Wagner was Orlando’s most successful scorer with just 13 points in the second game after Paolo Banchero’s injury. Da Silva played from the start and scored seven points, Moritz Wagner scored ten points from the bench.
Lower Saxony’s Dennis Schröder and Daniel Theis also had no reason to celebrate. Schröder and the Brooklyn Nets lost 92:106 to the Detroit Pistons, who had only won one game of the season. Schröder hit three of his seven attempts and had seven points, five rebounds and four assists.
Theis and the New Orleans Pelicans lost 111:126 against the Atlanta Hawks, who had not won four games in a row. The national basketball player had seven points and three rebounds in 18 minutes off the bench.
