Bayern Siegen Knapp: Weiler-Babb becomes father | Sportmix

In the penultimate game of the main round of the Basketball Bundesliga (BBL), Bayern won another exciting game against Bonn with 90:86. This stays at the top of the table and continue to be one of the strongest teams in the league. However, this was not an easy victory because Bonn fought hard until the end to stay in the race for the play-offs.

The Bayern star Nick Weiler-Babb was missing in the game because he was present in Munich at the birth of his daughter Avaya Isabela. With his wife Kirsten, he already has a son, which the Weiler-Babb family is now expanding to four members. This gratifying message illustrates the emotional aspects of life outside the field for players who often have to balance between family and career.

The game in Bonn, however, started bumpy for Bavaria, as it was back in the first quarter with 23:22. Bonn did everything possible to maintain her opportunities to participate in the play-offs. In the second half, too, the hosts kept the pressure and in the meantime led 66:55. The Bavarians had to rediscover the hope of a victory, which they finally succeeded, thanks to a solid team performance and a strong catch -up in the last quarter.

In the exciting final phase, the game became hectic again when Bonn was able to shorten the gap and the spectators were feverish in the hall. Bayern captain Vladimir Lucic played a crucial role when he won an important possession of the ball in the critical phase. Ultimately, Bayern's performance was crucial to secure the narrow 90: 86 victory. The dream of the final round for Bonn has finally burst.

For Bayern, it continues because they will play their last home game of the season against Ludwigsburg next Sunday. The play-off home games are played in the SAP garden, and the team has the chance to continue to present themselves for the championship. In view of the current form and team dynamics, Bayern are well positioned to build on the successes of the past seasons.
