After 15 defeats from 20 games, the Skyliners draw a line.
Basketball Bundesliga club Frankfurt Skyliners separated from his head coach Denis Wucherer. As the club announced on Sunday, the trainer was released after the 85: 92 defeat in Bamberg with immediate effect.
Wucherer (51) no longer drove to the training camp in Mallorca. The previous assistant coach Klaus Perwas will take over until the end of the season.
“With Denis we made the promotion last summer. This success will always have a place in the Skyliners history. But we have decided not to work further with Denis beyond the current season, so that he will no longer be on the sidelines from the coming game,” said Gunnar Wöbke, the managing partner of the Skyliners.
Frankfurt is on the previous table position
This step gives the club “the chance to initiate the necessary new beginning for the 2025/26 season and to set the course necessary,” said Wöbke.
At the Bamberg Baskets, Frankfurt received the 15th defeat in the 20th Bundesliga game on Saturday. The Skyliners are currently in the penultimate place in the table of the BBL.
As an active player, Wucherer played 123 caps for the German national team. Since 2023 he stood on the sidelines of the Skyliners.
