Brose – a strong candidate for the BCL title

When this season of the Basketball Champions League started, Brose Bamberg was very far from their past glory. Everybody thought that it will be a disappointing year for the German powerhouse. The only culpable for their slow start was the injury list who seems to grow every round.  But now, when the whole roster is available, nothing is impossible for the ex-Euroleague team.

Actually, they have one of the best line-ups of experienced guards from Europe, not only from BCL: the ex-teammates from Maccabi Tel-Aviv and Euroleague winners, Ricky Hickman and Tyrese Rice, plus the Greek legend, Nikos Zizis and Bryce Taylor.

If we add the other key-players like the Serbian international center Stevan Jelovac, the Americans Ellias Harris, Augustine Rubit and Cliff Alexander, plus the young fellows who help the team coming from the bench, we have a strong contender for the BCL trophy. 

Leaded by the experienced Latvian coach Ainars Bagatskis, Brose have the road open to the playoffs, Final 4 and why not for the Basketball Champions League title.
