In a Group D game where the final result had no impact on the standings, last-placed Nymburk defeated an already first Bilbao team 81 – 71 to finish their run in the 2022-23 Basketball Champions League with a win.
Gerel Simmons scored a game-high 27 points on 7-9 3-pointers to torch the Bilbao defense. Marek Klassen provided 16 points and nine assists while Lubor Kovar contributed nine boards to go with his seven points.
Michael Kyser was the only Bilbao player in double figures, finishing with 12. Bilbao was particularly overwhelmed in the second period, where Nymburk scored 32 points to go up 30 – 40. The Czech team never lost the lead for the rest of the match.
