Six players finished in double figures for Ronen Ginzburg's side as the visitors overwhelmed the hosts.
Prometey dominates Hamburg on the road, 83-97

Prometey Slobozhnske bounced back from its road loss against Joventut Badalona last week by clinching an 83-97 win against Veolia Towers Hamburg in Round 10 of the 2023-24 BKT EuroCup season at Edel-Optics.De Arena on Tuesday night. The visitors nudged ahead early and grabbed a double-digit advantage in the first period, then maintained its lead the rest of the way.
Prometey, which improved to 5-5, had six players in double figures, with Ondrej Balvin leading the way with 15 points and 8 rebounds. Ronald March scored 14 points, Rob Gray netted 13, Illia Sydorov had 12 and 5 assists, and Oleksandr Lypovyy, Tai Odiase and Gian Clavell finished with 11, 10 and 10, respectively. Lukas Meisner posted 16 points and 7 boards, William Christmas scored 16 and William King chipped in 12 for Hamburg, which fell to 1-9.
Prometey took the reins early
Sydorov and Odiase combined for the first 8 points of the guests, good for a 5-8 edge after 4 minutes. Prometey showed a great balance offensively, with as many as five different players scoring as the visitors increased their advantage to 7-14 midway through the first period. Hamburg found some relief from outside, with Mark Hughes running the show to keep things tight, 12-16. The visitors kept pushing, though, and escaped with a 14-26 lead when Lypovyyand Clavell connected on back-to-back triples soon. Niklas Krause came to the rescue with 5 points in a row, including a buzzer-beating triple that closed the first quarter with Prometey leading 19-26.
Balvin helped Prometey escape
Krause remained hot from deep after the break to make it 22-28, but Prometey found a reliable inside scoring source in Balvin, who netted 8 points in a row to return a double-digit advantage, 24-36, for the visitors. Hamburg tried to halt Prometey’s rhythm with a timeout, but it didn’t work as expected. Lypovyy nailed his second three to spark a 0-9 run that increased the gap to 27-45. Even though Christmas broke the trend with 4 straight points, the guests didn’t stop punishing their opponents from both inside and outside, eventually closing the first half with a dominant 35-52 advantage.

Prometey dug deeper
In the same way he did at the beginning of the game, Sydorov took control early and fed Odiase twice to make it a 19-point margin, 37-56, right after the intermission. Hamburg seemed to have found some offensive momentum, but it couldn’t prevent Prometey from staying in its groove. Agada found the basket on consecutive offense possessions and Bobrov followed to launch Prometey into a 20-point lead right before a TV timeout. March made it even wider, 43-66, with a triple right after. Both squads swapped baskets after that, which allowed the visitors to reach the end of the third quarter with a comfortable 54-74 lead
Hamburg scared Prometey, but fell short
Despite its difficulties, Hamburg didn’t give up and started the fourth quarter with renewed energy. A 6-0 run made it a 14-point game and resulted in a timeout being called by the visitors. Lypovyy looked to ruin Hamburg's hopes by drilling a three-pointer that shifted the momentum, while Clavell followed that up with a strike from downtown to restore a plus-20 margin, 61-82. Hamburg tried again by switching from man-to-man to zone defense on some of Prometey’s offenses, which started to pay off. A 15-2 run capped by 3 consecutive three-pointers reduced the difference to 81-88 with less than 3 minutes remaining, making it a new game. Prometey stayed calm, though, as a triple by Gray suffocated the home team's reaction at the right time. Then, a big block by Balvin and a couple of free throws by March put the game to bed.
