Acronis sends hearty congratulations to #TeamUp partner FC Bayern Basketball (FCBB) for a commanding 93-77 victory over Science City Jena in the opening game of the German basketball league season on September 26. The defending German champions demonstrated why they're still the team to beat in the easyCredit BBL with an impressive performance in front of a sold-out crowd of 6,600 fans at BMW Park.
The best way to start the season
The game showcased the depth and talent that makes FC Bayern Basketball such a formidable force in German basketball. Vladimir Lucic led the scoring with 19 points and 7 rebounds, while Xavier Rathan-Mayes contributed significantly with a double-double of 17 points and 11 rebounds. Niels Giffey (13 points), Stefan Jovic (12 points), and Justinian Jessup (11 points) rounded out a balanced offensive attack.
The victory was especially meaningful as the pre-game celebration honored five European champions on the team’s roster and came just 90 days after FCBB won its seventh German title. FCBB is seeking a third consecutive title this season.
