Alba Berlin organizational and competitive developments

Overview

Alba Berlin is pursuing significant organizational growth alongside evolving competitive results. Management is preparing for the potential launch of NBA Europe, which CEO Marco Baldi described as a “complicated process” that could offer a “quantum leap” for European basketball. The club aims to be a central stakeholder in the new league, with discussions occurring across twelve European locations. Concurrently, the club is progressing on a new arena project in Adlershof, with an agreement to complete the facility by 2032 to provide a long-term foundation regardless of the NBA Europe outcome.

On the court, the team enters the new Basketball Bundesliga season as defending champions. Despite roster challenges and injuries to Jack Kayil, Martin Hermannsson, and Norris Agbakoko, the team has secured key victories. Alba Berlin advanced to the BBL Cup quarterfinals after an 83:71 comeback win against Bamberg Baskets, led by Justin Bean’s 20 points and Malte Delow’s 18. They also defeated ratiopharm Ulm 98:82, capitalizing on Ulm’s 18 turnovers to pull away with a 30-point fourth quarter.

In European competition, Alba Berlin claimed the top spot in Group G of the Basketball Champions League following a dramatic 103:100 victory over Surne Bilbao. After trailing by 13 points and struggling with early rebounding, the team staged a comeback highlighted by Brandon Angel’s 24 points and Jordan Ford’s 21 points. The win was secured by a decisive three-pointer from Justin Bean with 9.8 seconds remaining before the buzzer.

In women’s basketball, the team secured its first season victory with a 75:57 win over Herner TC, led by Deeshyra Thomas.
