In nine days, Armani Milan's star ensemble, newly created this summer, will visit the Audi Dome for the EuroLeague kick-off. Until then, FCBB head coach Andrea Trinchieri still has two test games against BBL teams to fine-tune his squad. this Thursday (24.9., 19:00) Bamberg will play in the Audi Dome and on Saturday they'll face BG Göttingen.
Basketball fans can look forward to a real highlight on Thursday: MagentaSport will broadcast the preseason rivalry game against Bamberg live, with a "Wired" remake - both Trinchieri and Brose trainer Johan Roijakkers will be wired with mics and their bits will be played live as clips in the game.
