Deandre Lansdowne celebrated his comeback after an injury, but could not book assists (grade: 4-). Victor Bailey was the best thrower of his team with 15 points, but remained inefficient (grade: 3). Olivier Nkamhoua collected strong rebounds, but delivered a weak offensive game (grade: 3+).

Roman Bedime was used for two minutes and remained without evaluation.

for Rasta Vechta was particularly important because the club will play again in the Bundesliga in the coming season. After two seasons in the second division, Vechta experienced the fourth promotion in the club's history, after the years 2013, 2016 and 2018. The promotion was secured by a 3-1 victory in the semi-finals against the Gießen 46ers, with the decisive victory on Friday evening with 112: 87. In the final for the second division championship, Vechta meets the Tigers Tübingen, and both finalists are defined as promoters, provided you will receive the license for the coming season.

The development of Rasta Vechta has been changeable over the years after they reached the play-offs in the 2018/19 season and left Bayern Munich in the semi-finals. In the following season, the team qualified for the Basketball Champions League, while in the 2020/21 season they had to descend into the second division. The Niners Chemnitz are under pressure to improve their services to avoid future defeats. The analysis of the players after the defeat shows that improvements are necessary in many areas.
