Bonn beats Ulm – Dream start for Heidelberg

The Telekom Baskets Bonn have also won the second game of the Basketball Bundesliga. And promoted MLP Academics Heidelberg provided the second surprise.

Four days after the 85-74 opening win at Syntainics MBC, coach Branislav Ignjatovic’s short-staffed team beat last year’s main round champions MHP Riesen Ludwigsburg 73-67 (39-33) on Wednesday. It was the first Bundesliga home game after 36 years of abstinence. “I’m proud to the sky,” coach Ignjatovic said on “Magenta Sport”.

Bonn also holds its own

Besides the Heidelbergers, the Chemnitz Niners and the Telekom Baskets Bonn also held their own. The Saxons had already won their second game earlier. They won 90:82 (38:41) at Hamburg Towers. Darion Atkins was the top scorer with 17 points. The visitors turned the game around after half-time thanks to a 7-0 run and did not relinquish their lead.

Bonn made sure of the 76-73 decision against ratiopharm Ulm in the final quarter. Before that, the Baden-Württemberger had been in front for long stretches (51:60/30.).
