The Surne Bilbao Basket closed the group stage of the Champions League with a defeat against WAS Nymburk Czech (71-81) inconsequential at the qualifying level for the Basque team, which since last day had guaranteed a direct pass to the round that the 16 best teams of the tournament will play.

This lack of competitive incentive was a heavy burden for the ‘men in black’ against a rival who, already eliminated, took advantage of the low defensive intensity and the lack of success of the team Jaume Ponsarnau.

Michael Kyser (12 points and 9 rebounds) was the local player with the best tone within a general gray level, especially in the outside shot with 8 of 29 in triples (27.5%) and a fateful afternoon of Francis Alonso (3/10 in T2 and 0/6 in T3).

The other side in the launches was offered by the American guard of the Nymburk Gerel Simmonsauthor of 27 points with a series of 7/9 in triples, well supported in the direction by the point guard Mark Klassen (19 and 9 assists).
