FC Bayern Munich secured its first victory of the season with a hard-fought 97–88 Round 2 win over Crvena Zvezda Meridianbet Belgrade at SAP Garden. The game remained tight for the first 25 minutes before Bayern seized control with a decisive 23-6 run spanning the final two quarters.
Andi Obst led the charge by scoring 31 points on 9 three-pointers. Oscar da Silva added 12 points and Isiaha Mike chipped in 11 to help the German champions even their record at 1–1.
Zvezda dropped to 0–2 despite a standout performance from Jordan Nwora, who tallied 27 points. Codi Miller-McIntyre added 18 points, 4 rebounds, and 4 assists in the loss.
Zvezda came out strong, with Nwora converting two early three-point plays to grab a 6–0 lead. After Bayern went scoreless for over two minutes, Vladimir Lucic knocked down a triple, only for Nwora to respond with one of his own to make it 9–3. Chima Moneke added seven points to stretch the lead to 18–9. Bayern’s offense finally came alive as Obst drained two threes and Niels Giffey added another, sparking a surge that put the hosts ahead 20–19. Zvezda answered right back with three triples – two from Miller-McIntyre – to take a 28–24 lead after one quarter.
Zvezda’s hot shooting continued in the second, with Nikola Kalinic and Miller-McIntyre pushing the margin to 34–26. Obst and Kamar Baldwin hit from deep to keep Bayern in touch, narrowing the gap to 41–38. However, the visitors kept scoring and led 51–43 before Bayern closed the half strong, trailing just 55–50 at the break.
Nwora opened the third quarter with his third three-point play to restore a nine-point cushion at 59–50. But Bayern responded quickly: Obst hit two more threes and Mike added one to cut it to 64–63. Zvezda still led 66–63 when Bayern launched a 14–2 run, highlighted by back-to-back threes from Mike and Obst, to go up 77–68. The lead stood at 77–71 heading into the final period.
Bayern’s momentum carried into the fourth as they held Zvezda to just one free throw in the first four minutes, stretching the lead to 86–72 with key contributions from Stefan Jovic and Justinian Jessup. A four-minute scoring drought allowed Zvezda to close the gap to 86–78, but Obst put the game away with three more triples in under two minutes, sealing the win at 95–83 with just over two minutes remaining.
