Basketball - Chemnitz and Bayern on course in the Bundesliga
The Niners Chemnitz are still unstoppable in the German Basketball League. The league leaders won clearly by 95:67 (48:40) against Hakro Merlins Crailsheim and thus confidently maintained their top spot.
Kevin Yebo (20 points, eight rebounds) and Jeff Garrett (16 points, 11 rebounds) were the best performers for Rodrigo Pastore's in-form team on Boxing Day.
Champions Ratiopharm Ulm, former series champions Alba Berlin and top favorites FC Bayern have so far been overshadowed by the strong Chemnitz side, who have not lost since the season opener in Ulm.
Munich mastered their compulsory task at the Tigers Tübingen. The 96:74 (46:32) victory was clear and the game was already decided by half-time. Sylvain Francisco (20 points) was the visitors' best scorer. It was the fourth league win in a row for the team of Head Coach Pablo Laso, which had suffered a number of weaknesses at the start of the season.

The BV Chemnitz 99, hailing from Chemnitz, continues to make waves in the German Basketball League's landscape, mirroring the success of their football counterparts in Bundesliga, such as FC Bayern Munich. Kevin Yebo, a prominent player, scored 20 points and grabbed eight rebounds in their recent victory over Hakro Merlins Crailsheim. Meanwhile, Munich's Basketball team, led by Head Coach Pablo Laso, emerged victorious against Tigers Tübingen in Bavaria, leaving their opponents struggling to keep up. Despite the impressive performances of Chemnitz and Munich, other top teams like Ratiopharm Ulm and Alba Berlin are yet to reach their former glory.
