FIBA Asia Cup 2025: Iran one win away from promotion

In a highly anticipated Semi-Finals rematch, Iran once again triumphed over Thailand with a 78-52 victory, securing their spot in the Division B Final. Building on their previous group stage win against Thailand, Iran displayed strong defensive resolve and timely scoring. While Thailand put up a resilient fight, propelled by their sharp-shooting, Iran's cohesive team play, led by players like Negin Rasoulipour (176-SF-2000) and Barahman Roxy (173-G-1998, college: Yale), proved too much to overcome. Iran are now just one win away from promotion, fiba.basketball reported. Barahman Roxy had 20 points to lead Iran, while Rasoulipour added 13 points. Thailand were paced by Rattiyakorn Udomsuk (175-G/F-1999)'s 24 points.
