Dolphins - Saigon Heat 95-74

Dolphins had a 19-8 advantage in offensive rebounds. American players dominated the game. It was a good game for center Dominique Tham (195-1996, college: Mount Olive) who led his team to a victory with a double-double by scoring 28 points and 18 rebounds. Guard Madarious Gibbs (185-1993, college: Texas Southern) contributed with 25 points and 9 assists for the winners. Four Dolphins players scored in double figures. Swingman Kentrell Barkley (195-1996, college: ECU, agency: Haylett Sports) answered with 19 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists and forward Hassan Thomas (203-1996, college: Emporia St.) added 18 points, 10 rebounds and 4 assists in the effort for Heat. The winner was already known earlier in the game, so both coaches allowed to play the bench players saving starting five for next games.
