Niners Chemnitz Overturn Late Deficit to Beat Panionios in EuroCup

The comeback eased pressure on long-serving coach Rodrigo Pastore.

Overview

  • The hosts won 73–68 after a 20–4 fourth quarter, wiping out a 53–66 hole early in the final period at Messe Chemnitz.
  • The victory gave Chemnitz a 4–6 record in Group B, while Panionios stayed bottom after arriving with eight losses in nine and its lone win over Chemnitz in the opener.
  • Amadou Sow posted 19 points and 10 rebounds, Corey Davis drilled the go-ahead three with 1:16 left, and Kevin Yebo scored 16.
  • Postgame, Yebo defended Pastore, crediting his long tenure and dismissing criticism that had surfaced on social media.
  • The result offered a response to recent struggles that included 10 losses in 13 games and repeated late-game slips highlighted by excessive fouling in Bonn.
