Round 3 (Regular Season): Pilots hand first loss to Suwon KT

What a coincidence that all visitors won their games. Here is the last round review presented by Job Market.

The most crucial game of the last round was a loss of South Korean Sonicboom (1-1) in Busan on Wednesday night. Hosts were rolled over by Taiwanese Pilots (1-0) 91-70. Pilots looked well-organized offensively handing out 21 assists. It was a good game for American guard Treveon Graham (198-1993, college: VCU) who led his team to a victory with a double-double by scoring 32 points, 11 rebounds and 5 assists. His fellow American import center Alec Brown (216-1992, college: Green Bay) contributed with 25 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists for the winners. American forward Jeremiah Tilmon Jr (208-1998, college: Missouri) answered with 18 points and 8 rebounds for Suwon KT. The winner was already known earlier in the game, so both coaches allowed to play the bench players saving starting five for next games. Both teams do not play next round, which will be an opportunity for some rest.

In the last game of round 3 Macau beat Kings on the road 109-97.
The most impressive performance of 3rd round was 25 points, 11 rebounds, 7 assists and 5 steals by Kenny Manigault of Kings.
