Alba Berlin Secures Hard-Fought Victory Over Skyliners Frankfurt
The team climbs to 14th place in the standings but continues to struggle with consistency and shooting accuracy.
- Alba Berlin defeated the Skyliners Frankfurt 75-61 in a challenging away game, marking their sixth win in 14 Basketball-Bundesliga games this season.
- Matt Thomas led the team with an impressive 25 points, proving crucial in securing the victory despite Alba's overall struggles.
- The team's three-point shooting remained a significant weakness, with only 7 of 30 attempts successful, highlighting ongoing offensive issues.
- Newly signed center Michael Keesens did not participate, as he is still undergoing fitness tests and is expected to debut against Heidelberg on Saturday.
- Pedro Calles, Alba's recently appointed assistant coach, joined the team for the first time on the sidelines and will continue working closely with the roster during a demanding Euroleague week.
