Today, Thursday, both the first round and the round of 16 of the BBL Cup were drawn. In addition to the easyCredit BBL clubs, seven ProA league clubs from the Barmer 2nd Basketball Bundesliga are also represented in the competition
Last season’s play-off participants were given a bye and will not enter the competition until the round of 16. This was also drawn today: Defending champions Bayern Munich, for example, will travel to Bonn for a BBL clash with the Baskets, while record cup winners Alba Berlin will face the winner of the Crailsheim vs. Rostock duel.
“The first round of the cup will be played on the weekend of September 14/15, 2024. The round of 16 games of the BBL Cup will take place on October 12/13, 2024. The exact match times will be announced shortly,” the easyCredit BBL announced on its homepage. The quarter-finals are scheduled for December 7/8 and the final weekend for February 15/16, 2025.
