Despite missing star guard Sun Minghui, five Guangsha players scored double-digit points, proving coach Wang Bo’s pre-game emphasis on collective effort paid off big time.
From Tight Start to Total Control

Injury Twist Shifts Momentum
Disaster struck Guangdong early in the third quarter when Gillenwater collided with Guangsha’s Zhao Jiaren, forcing the star player out with an injury. From there, Guangsha’s defense locked in, maintaining a double-digit lead until the final buzzer.
