Bakken Bears just hit 100 wins in Europe.

The Danish champions won 80-76 away at Yukatel Denizli in Turkey on Tuesday 3 November. DBBF counts it as their 100th win across all European competitions. It started in 2004 with an 88-82 win at CAB Madeira in Portugal.

They are 4 and 1 in their FIBA Europe Cup group. Next up: Benfica away on Wednesday 11 November, then Lions de Genève at home on 18 November.

"The top of Danish elite basketball is stronger than we think," sports director Michael Piloz told DBBF.
