Homenetmen celebrated LBL title. They rallied past Al Riyadi in the decisive seventh game of the championship series. The game was mostly controlled by Homenetmen. Al Riyadi managed to win fourth quarter 20-19. But it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. They outrebounded Al Riyadi 47-36 including 16 on the offensive glass. Worth to mention a great performance of American swingman Sam Young (198-85, college: Pittsburgh) who helped to win the game recording a double-double by scoring 21 points and 10 rebounds. Naturalized Egyptian power forward Ahmad Ismail (205-76) contributed with 8 points, 16 rebounds, 6 assists and 4 blocks for the winners.
