Bayern went into this match with momentum after two away wins against Bologna and Lyon in the Champions League.

Bayern is showing strength in the Euroleague, but the team led by world champion Gordon Herbert (65) has been struggling in recent BBL matches. In particular, his 3-point shooting was lackluster.

Among them, Andri Obst (28) took the lead. A reliable 3-point shooter, he struggled with new league ball and also faced relationship issues over the past few weeks. His 3-point shooting success rate thus far has been below expectations.

“I treat him with love. Always. I’ve played a lot with him, but he still needs time,” Herbert said.

However, in the match against Braunschweig, Obst’s ball-related problems were overshadowed! By the end of the game, he shot an incredible 83.8% from 3-point range (5 of 6).

Braunschweig started strong and defended particularly well, with Schröder’s club only trailing by six points at half-time.

But the Munich side got their rhythm back! They shot 46% at halftime, setting a record never seen before in the BBL this season.

In the third quarter, Bayern became more aggressive and Braunschweig lost sight of the game and gave the ball away more often. Obst and his teammates were able to take a 16-point lead at one point.

Lion didn’t give up either, much to the delight of 6,500 fans in a packed Volkswagen Hall. The underdogs rallied in the final quarter, but a timely 3-pointer from Obst gave Bayern a 10-point lead with 4:12 remaining.

Then something shocking happened. Two minutes before the end of the game, the venue fell silent! Andri Obst suddenly fell, defenseless, and fell onto the court with no friends or foes around him. The world champion was lying on the floor, holding his left ankle. The match has been suspended.

Eventually, Obst left the court on his own, cheering for his team from the bench at the end of the game, and even appeared on the court after the game.

Bayern will play Zalgiris Kaunas in the EuroLeague on Thursday (8:45 pm, live on Magenta) at the SAP Garden in Munich. Former manager Andrea Trinchieri will be on the opponent’s bench.
