Another exciting game that went down to the wire, Zain came out hot as they hit their first three three pointers to build a 10 point lead in the first 3 minutes of the game, then Bank Audi started getting into a nice offensive rhythm as they used their speed and quickness to score easy points on the fast break and finish the quarter down 12-17. In the second quarter, Bank Audi continued running their fast break game to perfection as they out scored Zain 20-11 in the quarter to take a 4 point lead into halftime leading 32-28.
In the third quarter, Zain changed their defensive scheme to try and slow down Bank Audi and they were able to do that while being more efficient on offense as they out scored Bank Audi 24-13 in the quarter to take a 7 point lead heading into the fourth quarter leading 52-45. After a couple of scoreless minutes to start the fourth quarter and falling behind by double digits, Bank Audi started a great comeback that cut down the deficit to only 3 points with over 2 minutes to go in the game but timely free throws and a couple of three pointers from Zain put the game away as Zain won 68-61.
