Overview

  • The club announced a two-year early extension for Rodrigo Pastore, moving his contract end date from summer 2026 to summer 2028.
  • Niners CEO Steffen Herhold praised Pastore’s impact and framed the deal as a continuation of the club’s long-term project.
  • Pastore has led Chemnitz since 2015, guiding promotion to the BBL in 2020, a Pokal Final Four in 2022, and the 2024 FIBA Europe Cup title.
  • Sportbild reported that no other current BBL coach has a longer contract term, a detail not stated by the club.
  • The timing comes days before the league opener at Ulm and ahead of a EuroCup start on October 1 in Athens, with Pastore saying he feels hungry and full of energy.
