Before the game against Rosa Radom, one of the weakest team of the league, Anwil Wloclawek was thought to be an uncontested favorite. In reality, the league newcomer played with all their hearts and stole two points after the 65:63 win.

Before the game against Rosa Radom, one of the weakest team of the league, Anwil Wloclawek was thought to be an uncontested favorite. In reality, the league newcomer played with all their hearts and stole two points after the 65:63 win.

42 seconds to go it seemed that Anwil, that eventually found its rhythm, is going to win the game despite the previous difficulties. The captain of Anwil Wloclawek, Krzysztof Szubarga, made his second triple (and simultaneously it was the seventh shot made in that quarter) and the hosts almost cut the lead to only 62:64. Unfortunately, being worn out when stood on the free throws line, Szubarga made only 1-for-2 and 10 seconds before the final buzzer, Rosa had the ball winning 64:63.

The headcoach Dainius Adomaitis ordered to make a fouls and fortune smiled on Anwil, because J.J. Montgomery missed his second attempt (63:65) and the ball was grabbed by Tony Weeden. American guard started to run and dribble so Hubert Radke couldn't see an other solution finishing his run by a foul. In that moment he didn't know that it was one of the best game decisions - Weeden missed both shots and the newcomer could start to dance on the floor. It was its first league win.

Moreover, Hubert Radke was the most important player for the guests as he made 20 points (four three-pointers) and had 9 rebounds. For Anwil, Krzysztof Szubarga scored 15, while Weeden added 13.
