In a nail-biter that had fans on the edge of their seats, the Guangsha Lions clawed their way to a 91-85 victory over the previously unbeaten Beijing Ducks on Tuesday. The win shattered the Ducks' perfect 7-0 start to the 2025-26 CBA season – a plot twist even wilder than your favorite K-drama finale! 🌟
American guard Barry Brown became the Lions' MVP, dropping four clutch three-pointers (two in the opening minutes and two in the final stretch) to finish with 23 points, 6 assists, and 4 steals. Teammate Sun Minghui kept the pressure cooker on with 22 points and 5 assists, setting the stage for Brown's 🔥 fourth-quarter heroics.
While Beijing's Zhao Rui delivered a stellar 22-point, 9-rebound performance, the Ducks' 17 turnovers proved costly. The absence of Chen Ying-chun left a gap in their offense, with Omari Spellman (13 points) and Zhou Qi (12 points, 14 rebounds) unable to fully compensate. 🦆❌
This showdown reminds us why the CBA remains one of Asia's most electrifying basketball leagues – where any team can rise up and slam dunk expectations! 🏆
