ĐÀ NẴNG — The first place Saigon Heat won easily against last place Danang Dragons in a match held on Sunday.
Before the game, the Dragons faced a huge disadvantage as their number one scorer Jermaine Marrow could not play due to his unsportsmanlike foul in the previous game.
With the better squad, the Heat easily controlled the game.
Heat coach Matt Van Pelt boldly gave his local players a chance to play. Nguyễn Huỳnh Phú Vinh, Võ Kim Bản, and Dư Minh An all showed their abilities, helping the Heat to overwhelm the host.
In just the first three minutes, the Heat had an 一 一-0 lead before taking full control of the first quarter with a score of 一 八- 三 三.
In the second quarter, the lead was increased to 二 五- 四 一 for the guest.
Before the break, "Black Panther" Nguyễn Anh Kiệt and Từ Dương Huy helped the host narrow the lead to 三 八- 四 六.
After the break, the Heat's starting five players returned to the court, and the away team quickly increased the lead to 五 四- 六 八.
In the last quarter, both teams decided not to use foreign players.
Not missing this opportunity, the young players of the home team played with high determination, narrowing the score to 七 二- 七 七.
Although the opponent caught up, coach Matt Van Pelt still believed in his local players.
In response to this trust, the duo Võ Kim Bản and Nguyễn Huỳnh Phú Vinh continuously scored to bring the final victory for the Heat with the match ending with the score 七 六- 八 六.
Phú Vinh became the first local player to win Player of the Game with 一 四 points and 一 四 rebounds. VNS
