Bahcesehir College, NINERS Chemnitz to contest 2024 FIBA Europe Cup Finals
MUNICH (Germany) - Bahcesehir College and NINERS Chemnitz will compete for the 2024 FIBA Europe Cup title after the Semi-Finals concluded on Wednesday.
The two teams came through contrasting matchups to set up the two-legged Finals showdown, which takes place later this month.
Bahcesehir overcame Itelyum Varese 161-154 on aggregate with a thrilling 81-73 triumph in Istanbul following the narrow one-point defeat on the road last week.
Meanwhile, NINERS' dominant 25-point win over Surne Bilbao Basket on the road provided a significant platform for their overall 171-155 success, despite losing the second leg 82-73 at home.
Bahcesehir were champions in 2022, and could become the first club to win the FIBA Europe Cup title for a second time, whereas NINERS are aiming to join Fraport Skyliners as title-winners from Germany.
The first leg of the Finals is set to take place in Chemnitz on April 17, before the return leg is held in Istanbul on April 24 - with Bahcesehir earning home advantage as a result of their higher-ranking from the Second Round.
