Corinthians lose unbeaten run after six games in the NBB

By Vinícios Cotrim | Central do Timão Editorial Team

Corinthians faced SESI Franca and was defeated at the Pedrocão Gymnasium in a match that took place last Wednesday (3). With the setback, the team led by Jece Leite lost a remarkable streak of six consecutive victories, something that hadn't happened since 2024.

In the NBB, Jece Leite's team hadn't lost since the fourth round when they faced Flamengo in Mogi das Cruzes. Since then, they secured victories against Botafogo, Fortaleza, Unifacisa, São José, Pato, and Mogi Basquete. Now, out of 11 rounds played, Corinthians has lost only three.

The last streak like this happened at the beginning of 2024, during the NBB 2023/24. Timão was coached by Silvio Santander at the time, who led the team to good results against São Paulo, Paulistano, Fortaleza, Unifacisa, União Corinthians, and Pinheiros, between February 17 and March 23. The defeat came against Pato Basquete.

It is worth remembering that at the start of the current season, Corinthians managed to achieve a streak of six consecutive victories in the first six rounds of the Paulista Championship. However, in the seventh round, Timão was defeated precisely by SESI Franca.

Corinthians remains in the interior of São Paulo for the continuation of the Novo Basquete Brasil. The Parque São Jorge team will face Bauru Basket in the 12th match of the championship. The game will take place on December 10 at Panela de Pressão, the opponent's home court.
