After getting thrashed a week earlier, ratiopharm Ulm let out all its frustrations with fearless shooting on Tuesday to move up the charts in BKT EuroCup's Group B.
Ulm's three-point onslaught was one for the books

German League champion ratiopharm Ulm had a whole week contemplate what happened when it visited Dreamland Gran Canaria, the defending BKT EuroCup champion in Round 2. That long trip resulted in a 29-point defeat for Ulm, the fifth-worst defeat of the club's 10 previous EuroCup seasons.
Back home in Round 3 to host 7bet-Lietkabelis Panevezys on Tuesday, Ulm's shooters took out their frustrations on the ratiopharm Arena nets they know so well, burying the most three-pointers of any team in the EuroCup so far this season. The result was a resounding 99-74 victory that may prove even more important when the points are counted up at tiebreaker time in Group B much later in the season.
L. J. Figueroa set the pace for the hosts by hitting the game's first shot from deep. By the time Ulm was finished, its shooters had drilled 17 three-pointers. What's more, Ulm's 53.1% success rate from the arc on 32 attempts was the highest accuracy of any EuroCup team yet this season.
Everyone followed Figueroa right away, with six different players total combining on 7 three-pointers in the first quarter, matching the club record for any quarter in its .
Another 10 triples over the rest of the game kept Lietkabelis consistently at bay and allowed Ulm to demoralize its guests and eventually pull away to its second-widest victory margin in 65 previous EuroCup victories.
Dakota Mathias buried 4 of his 6 attempts from downtown to lead the way. Karim Jallow was a perfect 3-for-3. Georginho De Paula, Trevion Williams, Maximilian Langenfeld and Pacome Dadiet all hit 2 apiece, while Thomas Klepeisz joined Figueroa with 1 each.
Only three other times more than 4,200 EuroCup games this century have other teams had more than the six players with at least 2 three-pointers made each that Ulm could boast on Tuesday.
All in all, it was a nice way to react to a blowout.
