Match report
Phoenix Hagen edged Oldenburg 87-78 in the BBL on 10 October 2026. The visitors took the result home after a game that turned on their shooting from distance. Oldenburg had been the favourites, and for a stretch they looked like they might hold firm.
And here's the thing — Phoenix's three-point shooting was the difference. They hit 14 of 30 attempts, compared to Oldenburg's 8 from 22. The hosts worked the inside, pulling down 10 offensive rebounds to the visitors' 4, but it wasn't enough to offset what happened from beyond the arc. To be fair, Oldenburg's field goal percentage was decent at 29 of 61, but Phoenix closed stronger when it mattered.
By then the statistical picture was clear enough. Phoenix completed 16 free throws from 19 attempts, while Oldenburg managed 12 from 18. The visitors also recorded 18 assists to 14, and committed fewer turnovers — 11 against 14. They didn't dominate the glass, but they moved the ball with more purpose when the game tightened.
Oldenburg's recent form had suggested they could be dangerous. They'd beaten Hamburg 74-75 and Würzburg 77-68, and even posted a 96-81 win over Shenzhen. But a 60-113 loss to Bayern on 4 October had exposed vulnerabilities, and Phoenix made sure they didn't recover.
We had backed Oldenburg at 71 per cent confidence. The prediction didn't stick — Phoenix's shooting from range broke the model. Oldenburg now sit with a loss to mark, while Hagen extend their run of competitive outings in the BBL.
