The most crucial game of the last round was a loss of CLS Knights (1-1) in Kuala Lumpur on Sunday night. Visitors were defeated by GoStrong (2-2) 70-62. GoStrong is looking forward to face Flyer Spirit (#8) in Johor Baharu in the next round which should be theoretically an easy game. CLS Knights will play at home against KL Aseel (#4) and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
Important game to mention about took place in Bandar Seri Begawan. Speed Hunters (1-1) saved a 1-point victory on the road edging Pegasus (1-1) 90-89 in the game for the fourth place.

Very important is a road loss of Penang Stallions (3-2) against KL Aseel (2-2) on Sunday night. Visiting Penang Stallions were crushed by KL Aseel in Kuala Lumpur 92-64. KL Aseel will meet CLS Knights (#5) in the next round. Penang Stallions will play against Roosters in Sabah and hope to secure a win.
