Thailand vented its ire on Myanmar with a 102-35 shellacking Monday in the 2017 Seaba Championship. Wutipong Dasom (195-C-91) uncorked a tournament-best 40 points, outscoring the whole Burmese squad, while also hauling down 11 rebounds as the Thais bounced back from their sorry 60-59 loss to Indonesia on Sunday. Thailand came out playing with a purpose, running to a 14-0 start and extending its lead to as high as 67 en route to its third win against one defeat. Nakom Jaisanuk had 15 markers, six boards, and four assists, while Naratip Boonsern had 13 in the win. Thailand coach Tim Lewis once again opted to sit out leading scorer Chitchai Ananti (196-G/F-90) for the second time in the tournament, while also keeping bruiser Chanachon Klahan stapled on the bench. The Thais brace for a tough fight against host team Gilas Pilipinas on Tuesday. Aung Wana (180-F-95) carried Myanmar (0-3) with 10 points and six rebounds.
