There were only 2 rounds played so far and it's still very beginning of the Regular Season in Superleague. Here is the last round review presented by Job Market.

The most exciting game of round 2 in the Superleague took place in Kirku. This derby game ended with only three-point home defeat of Ghaz Al-Shamal to Al Naft 48-45 on Wednesday evening. Guest team only slightly avoided a big embarassment. Al Naft's supporters look forward to an exciting derby game next round, where their team will face at home their local rival from Baghdad Al-Hashd.
Important game to mention about took place in Baghdad. Al Kahraba saved a 1-point victory at home edging Al-Hashd 74-73 on Sunday evening. Al Kahraba's supporters look forward to an exciting derby game next round, where their team will face at home their local rival from Baghdad .
The game in Kirku supposed to be also quite interesting. Al-Difaa played at the court of Ghaz Al-Shamal. Al-Difaa smashed Ghaz Al-Shamal 119-88 on Thursday. Al-Difaa will have a break next round, and it should allow them to practice more before next game. Ghaz Al-Shamal will play against Al Karkh and hope to win that game.

There were no shocking results in the other games in round 2: winless Al Hilla lost to undefeated Al Naft on the opponent's court 68-93. Al Shurtah managed to outperform Nift Al-Shamal in a home game 91-74. Al Naft managed to beat Nift Al-Shamal on the road 94-80.
