Bonn 3:1
Karsiyaka 2-2
Rezzo Emilia 2-2
AEK 1-3

With Strelniek leading in the first period (7 points), AEK showed that they went to Germany to win, but they didn’t have enough creativity and efficiency from the perimeter (2/7 trebles for 19-17 in 10 minutes). ). Williams and Mitchell were there to show AEK was ready for the double and Madsen pulled off a shot late in the first half to make it 34-35, even between two teams who knew the importance of their mission.

With shorts in the third quarter, Bonn extended an 11-point lead (52-41 at 25′) and increased 15 (59-44 at 28′) to end the game in minutes. Kanzouri’s players didn’t have the energy or guts to challenge for the upset, Shorts did what he wanted by scoring in spurts and by the end of the evening the better team, the one with the best player of the game, had won.

In the past, Fraser of Prometheus asked to leave for personal reasons

A blow for Prometheus, because before two weeks had passed since the agreement with Tim Fraser, he had to terminate the contract of the American, who wanted to leave due to a family problem.

Tim Frazier’s second stint in the Stoiximan Basket League was short-lived after Prometheus announced the termination of his contract just 12 days after his acquisition.

As Patrini revealed, the American asked to leave for personal reasons, with Prometheus respecting his wishes.

Frazier managed to play in just one game with the Patriots – in the 68-71 loss to Dijon in the Basketball Champions League, where he had 8 points and 4 assists – with the only positive for Prometheus being no foreigner Stoiximan Basket League was substituted in the Basketball Champions League because he had not included him in his Greek squad.

The announcement in detail:

“KAE Prometheus Patras announces the amicable solution to its collaboration with Tim Frazier, respecting the exceptional family problem that has arisen for the American athlete. We thank him for his offer and wish him all the best for his career.”
