The basketball players of Heroes Den Bosch did not manage to win the cup final. They lost to Donar. The home team won in Groningen with a score of 76-71.
The final was exciting until the last moment. For a long time, they went head to head. With only five minutes before the end the score was still a draw (69-69). Then Donar took a small lead. Their desire to catch up as soon as possible prompted the Den Bosch side to make a number of minor mistakes that Donar exploited relentlessly.
Before the end, Den Bosch had the chance to equalize at the score of 74-71, but a three-pointer by Austin Price did not go in.
The Den Bosch top scorer was Austin Price with 21 points, Edon Maxhuni scored 19 points.
In Martiniplaza, a crowd of 4100 watched the game, with over 400 from Den Bosch. The last time Den Bosch won the cup was in 2016.
