Lenny the hero as Al Rayyan claim Emir Cup - Apr 17, 2019
Lenny Daniel (203-PF-87, college: CS Northridge) came up with decisive points in the final two minutes of play as Al Rayyan edged out Al Sadd 80-77 to win the Amir Cup basketball tournament at the Al Gharafa Sports Club last night. In an entertaining final which saw the lead changing nine times, Daniel was deservedly the top-scorer with 23 points with a 60% success rate in field goals attempted. Al Rayyan trailed Al Sadd by two points (62-64) going into the final quarter, but produced an 18-point effort in the final 10 minutes while Al Sadd could only muster 13. The match began at a cracking pace but there was precious little that separated the teams in the opening 10-minute period during which they scored 19 points apiece. Al Rayyan took a 45-40 lead after the second period, although a whopping 24-point effort by Al Sadd brought them back into the game. But a solid defensive performance by Al Rayyan eventually helped them clinch the prestigious Cup. Tanguy Ngombo (197-F-84) was the second-highest scorer for Al Rayyan with 14 points while Abdelrahman Abdelhaleem and Mohamed Hassan Mohamed had 12 each. For Al Sadd, Dominic James (180-PG-86, college: Marquette) excelled with 18 points, while captain Mustafa Fouda had 16 and Faisal Abuissa and Devin Green (201-G/F-82, college: Hampton) 14 each. Al Sadd scored 19 points from turnovers while Al Rayyan just had five. However, Al Rayyan excelled with 14 second chance points. In the end they led for 23 minutes of the action which stood them in good stead. 'It was a tough game but I congratulate my players for pulling off an excellent victory,' Al Rayyan coach Erik T Rashad said. Courtesy of: gulf-times.com
