Towers Suffer 15th Loss in 15th Game - Veolia Towers Hamburg’s losing streak hits 15 after EuroCup collapse
Veolia Towers Hamburg's difficult season continues after a heavy defeat to Cedevita Olimpija Ljubljana. The team suffered its fifteenth straight loss, this time falling 73–93 in the EuroCup. Coach Benka Barloschky now faces mounting pressure as the losing streak stretches on.
Hamburg started poorly, falling behind 2–11 in the opening minutes. Despite 19 points from newcomer Devon Daniels, the team struggled to close the gap. Defensive lapses allowed Ljubljana to go on a 12–1 run, pushing the halftime score to 41–24 in favour of the visitors.
The Towers never recovered in the second half. Ljubljana maintained control, cruising to a comfortable victory. Hamburg's struggles extend beyond this match—they have lost all 15 games this season, including eight straight in the EuroCup and six consecutive defeats in the BBL.
Their last win came in the German league, but even that was followed by a first-round exit in the German Cup. The team's defensive weaknesses and inability to turn the tide have left them without a victory since early in the campaign.
The defeat leaves Hamburg without a single win in 2023. Their losing streak now stands at fifteen games across all competitions. With no signs of improvement, the team's focus will likely shift to regrouping for future challenges.
