The 33-year-old led the BC Vienna star ensemble with 23 points to an 83-77 victory and into the final against defending champion Oberwart Gunners, which was still in progress when this issue went to print. “What Gmunden did in the last five minutes was unbelievably strong. First you have to fight your way back,” Murati said, paying tribute to his former team-mates.
The Swans had demanded everything from the Viennese under difficult circumstances (three failures, limited training in the past ten days because of Corona), it was a decent farewell. “The boys did their best,” said coach Aleksi Koskinen. “You can’t afford to make any mistakes against BC Vienna,” analyzed captain Daniel Friedrich.
The Raiffeisen Flyers Wels played 91:67 against Kapfenberg after losing the first quarter (19:22). The people of Messestadt once again have chances of reaching the placement round of the top six. Outstanding were Cameron Delaney (23 points) and Jimbo Lull (16 points, 11 rebounds). “I’m proud of the team,” said coach Sebastian Waser.
