West Asia Super League

Regular Season Round 8: Al Arabi - Al Ittihad 81-85

Date: January 7, 2025
The most crucial game of the last round was a loss of Qatari Al Arabi (2-2) in Doha on Tuesday night. Hosts were defeated by Saudi Arabian Al Ittihad (2-2) 85-81. It ended at the same time the two-game winning streak of Al Arabi. It was a key game for the top position in the league. American point guard Keron DeShields (190-1992, college: Tennessee St., agency: Diamond Sports) orchestrated the victory by scoring 24 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists. Mathna Almarwani (186-1992) contributed with 19 points and 6 rebounds for the winners. Four Al Ittihad players scored in double figures. Bosnian center Elmedin Kikanovic (211-1988) replied with a double-double by scoring 21 points and 10 rebounds and American Victor Rudd (206-1991, college: S.Florida) added 17 points and 6 rebounds in the effort for Al Arabi. Al Ittihad keeps a position of league leader, which they share with 3 other teams including defeated Al Arabi. Al Ittihad is looking forward to face league's leader Qadsia in Kuwait City in the next round and it will be for sure the game of the week. Al Arabi will play at home against Al-Manama and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
