Oldenburg Team News
The Oldenburg team is one of the most pleasant surprises this season in the German Bundesliga. They finished the season in an excellent fourth place, and throughout the season they played excellently first of all at home, where it is very difficult to beat them.
The young Spanish coach Pedro Calles has done an excellent job and put together a very respectable team, where all the players have range for three, but there is a lot of forcing and contact play, and penetration play. They are powered by DeWayne Russell, Fatts Russell’s brother, who now plays for Galatasaray. Also, DeWayne is a pure scorer like Fatts, but he is much better defensively. During the season, the team was strengthened by guard Hassani Gravett, who also has experience playing in the NBA league.
A big problem for the Oldenburg team is the injury of perhaps the best Latvian player, Lomazs, who ended the season due to injury. That certainly encourages Oldenburg fans is certainly the form of their team. Namely, Oldenburg won six times in the last seven games, and in the last round they defeated Bayern Munich with a 12-point difference, and the team was led by Russel with 37 points. Oldenburg plays in a fast rhythm and if they manage to get Ludwigsburg into their rhythm, i.e. transition and running behind the opponent, they will win this match.
Ludwigsburg Team News
The American coach, Josh King, is on Ludwigsburg’s bench. King forces fast basketball with a lot of transition, and a lot of 3-point shots, so his team often goes for 90 points.
King assembled a team with many interesting foreigners and a few local players. One of the main players during the season was Isaiah Whitehead, who left Ludwigsburg in mid-January. His role was taken over by the experienced Will Cherry, who, in addition to the forward part, also contributes a lot in defense.
However, the main offensive options of the Ludwigsburg team are American Prentiss Hubb, who averages 16 points per game, and Dutchman Jhonatan Dunn, who averages 15 points. The Ludwigsburg team can look for an advantage against Oldenburg under the basket where they have more width, especially in the form of the experienced Bartolo, who is a real wall in Ludwigsburg’s racket.
They have been playing quite erratically lately, especially playing poorly away from home. Not so long ago, they played an away match against Oldenburg, where they were defeated by 13 points.
