They looked well-organized offensively handing out 24 assists. Worth to mention a great performance of American point guard Justin Ingram (189-85, college: Toledo, agency: Two Points) who helped to win the game recording 17 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists and American-British power forward Laurence Ekperigin (201-88, college: Le Moyne) who added 10 points, 12 rebounds and 6 assists during the contest. At the losing side American point guard Ronnie Taylor (187-81, college: NC-Greensboro) responded with 22 points and 6 assists (perfect from downtown making all five shots) and his fellow American import Darnell Wilson (198-85, college: Canisius, agency: Court Side) scored 13 points and 6 rebounds.
