Very significant was Braves' (#3, 10-12) victory against their biggest opponent Ghosthawks (10-11) 100-94. Fubon Braves looked well-organized offensively handing out 26 assists. Great defensive blocking was one of the keys in this match when Fubon Braves made 7 blocks. 31 personal fouls committed by Ghosthawks helped opponents get some easy free throw opportunities. Worth to mention a great performance of American guard Archie Goodwin (196-1994, college: Kentucky) who helped to win the game recording 25 points and 5 rebounds and the former international forward Mouhamed Mbaye (208-2001, college: Trinity Valley) who added 20 points and 9 rebounds during the contest. At the losing side American DeMon Brooks (202-1992, college: Davidson) responded with a double-double by scoring 21 points and 12 rebounds.

Very significant was Pilots' (#1, 17-2) victory against their biggest opponent Ghosthawks (10-11) 104-94. The winners were led by the former international power forward Will Artino (211-1992, college: Creighton) who had that evening a double-double by scoring 23 points and 13 rebounds and Treveon Graham supported him with 27 points and 5 rebounds. Even a double-double of 17 points and 12 rebounds by Canadian forward Fardaws Aimaq (211-1999, college: California) did not help to save the game for Ghosthawks. Both coaches tested many bench players and allowed the starting five to rest. Pilots maintains first position with 17-2 record. Ghosthawks at the other side keep the second place with 11 games lost.
