Second-round opener: 63:34 against Bayreuth

The Rhinos continued into the second half of the season against Bayreuth. They ended up with a clear 63:34 victory against the team from Franconia. This secured the Wiesbaden wheelchair basketball team's third place in the table, directly behind the Thuringa Bulls and RSV Lahn-Dill.

Guest performance at RBB Munich Iguanas

After a 14-day break, the Rhinos will then travel to face the RBB München Iguanas on Saturday, February 14, at 5 p.m. That's where they hope to secure their next victory.

Close 59:66 win against Thuringa Bulls

The Rhinos welcomed the top team, the Thuringa Bulls, to the Halle am Platz der Deutschen Einheit and looked like certain winners. Wiesbaden led until shortly before the end, and the visitors only managed to equalize at 54:54 with three free throws. You couldn't lose a game more unluckily than that. And in overtime, the Bulls narrowly prevailed 66:59. The Rhinos were certainly the moral victors, but in the end, they suffered a very unfortunate defeat after overtime.
