National basketball player Dennis Schröder won the world champion duel with Daniel Theis and, after two recent defeats, achieved another success with the <a href="https://www.archysport.com/2022/01/nba-dallas-mavericks-winning-streak-ends-abruptly/" title="NBA: Dallas Mavericks winning streak ends abruptly”>Brooklyn Nets in the North American professional league NBA. The Nets narrowly won against the New Orleans Pelicans 107:105 and thus consolidated their place in the upper half of the Eastern Conference.
Schröder had 14 points and two assists. Especially with a strong final quarter (26:20), Brooklyn braced itself against the impending defeat – also because the Pelicans failed to hit their last eight shots. Theis, who won the World Cup title with Schröder in 2023, only managed four points in just under nine minutes of playing time.
