Flamengo begin their Novo Basquete Brasil (NBB) playoff campaign this Wednesday (22). The red-and-black team takes on União Corinthians at 7 p.m. (Brasília time) at Maracanãzinho, in Rio de Janeiro, in Game 1 of the round of 16.
The series follows a best-of-five format, with the first team to win three games advancing. The matchup then shifts to Santa Cruz do Sul, where Ginásio Poliesportivo Arnão will host Games 2 and 3 on April 25 and 27, respectively. On the other hand, if the series goes longer, Games 4 and 5 will return to Rio de Janeiro.
The game will be broadcast on ESPN (pay TV). In addition, Coluna do Fla will post the result and game highlights on its website and social media channels.
After finishing the Champions League Americas (BCLA) in fourth place, Flamengo begin a new cycle. The team’s performance in the continental tournament led to the dismissal of Sérgio ‘Oveja’ Hernández, opening the door for assistant coach Fernando Pereira to take over as interim head coach of the group.
