While Alba Berlin (22-6) continues to try and claw its way up Germany’s Bundesliga standings at three games behind current top-seed Brose Baskets Bamberg, the team last night got a little relief in the form of a game against relegation-zoners Phoenix Hagen (8-20 and in a three-way tie for 15th place) to put up some gaudy numbers in a 114-86 rout.
Berlin put up a crazy 69 points in the first half of the match and set the Bundesliga record for assists in a game with 32 – many on dishes designed for YouTube highlight clips (as seen below, in fact). The Eurocup side ultimately had five players scoring in double figures, with the pace set by former Benetton Treviso/Bennet Cantù/Wright State University Raiders guard DaShaun Wood’s big 27 points in just 22 minutes played.
