BG Karlsruhe managed to escape with a 3-point win 62-59 on Sunday evening. Gloria Giants were trailing by 2 points at halftime but managed to get 1-point lead after three quarters before a 21-17 charge of BG Karlsruhe, which allowed them to win the game. They made 19-of-25 free shots (76.0 percent) during the game. American guard Martin Samarco (191-85, college: Bowling Green) stepped up and scored 22 points and 6 rebounds for the winners and forward Rouven Roessler (200-80) chipped in 15 points.

Gloria Giants' coach rotated ten players in this game, but that didn't help. BG Karlsruhe have a solid series of three victories in a row.

They share it with Jena and Ehingen. BG Karlsruhe will meet at home league's second-placed Kirchheim Knights in the next round and it will be quite challenging to get another victory. Gloria Giants will play against NBC (#6) in Nurnberg and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
