Saudi Arabia

Regular Season Round 16: Al Salam - Al Ittihad 87-97

Date: January 26, 2026
The game in Al-Awamiyah was also quite interesting. Fourth ranked Al Ittihad (11-4) played at the court of 5th ranked Al Salam (8-7). Al Ittihad defeated Al Salam 97-87 on Monday. It ended at the same time the two-game winning streak of Al Salam. Al Ittihad forced 19 Al Salam turnovers. They looked well-organized offensively handing out 21 assists. The winners were led by American point guard Erick Neal (178-1995, college: UT Arlington) who had that evening a double-double by scoring 27 points, 7 rebounds, 11 assists and 5 steals and the former international Mathna Almarwani (186-1992) supported him with 29 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists. Neal is a former Eurobasket Summer League player, which is considered top international summer league in the market. Al Ittihad's coach Slobodan Subotic used an eleven-player rotation which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games. Even a double-double of 42 points (!!!), 12 rebounds and 6 assists by American forward Alex Young (198-1989, college: IUPUI) did not help to save the game for Al Salam. His fellow American import forward Stephen Hurt (211-1993, college: Kansas St., agency: Diamond Sports) added 12 points, 11 rebounds and 4 assists for lost side. Defending champion maintains fourth position with 11-4 record. Al Salam at the other side keeps the fifth place with seven games lost. Al Ittihad will meet at home Al Khaleej (#9) in the next round where they are favorite. Al Salam will play against the league's second-placed Al Ahli (#2) and hope to secure a win.
