Beijing Enterprises vs. Liaoning. Beijing Enterprises had been on a 4-game losing streak before facing the strong Liaoning team, who themselves had just suffered a heavy defeat to Guangsha in a top-tier matchup. The game started evenly with both teams exchanging scores. Beijing Enterprises pulled ahead by 2 points at the end of the first quarter. However, in the second quarter, Beijing Enterprises struggled offensively while Liaoning diversified their attack, outscoring 20-13 and taking a 5-point lead by halftime. In the second half, Liaoning’s offense faltered, allowing Beijing Enterprises to go on a scoring run, winning the quarter 23-14 and reclaiming a 4-point lead. The final quarter was a back-and-forth battle, with Brown suddenly catching fire, shooting flawlessly to counter Beijing Enterprises’ balanced attack. In the closing moments, Zhu Songwei’s precise three-pointer sealed the game, followed by Liao Sanning’s one of two free throws. Ultimately, Beijing Enterprises pulled off a major upset, handing Liaoning their second straight loss!

Shanghai vs. Sichuan. Facing the struggling Sichuan team, winless in their first six games, Shanghai saw a prime opportunity to secure victory. Playing at home, Shanghai aggressively dominated both offense and defense from the start, blasting out a staggering 32-7 lead in the first quarter and building a massive 25-point advantage that effectively decided the game early. Although Shanghai’s offensive intensity eased in the following quarters, they maintained control, leaving Sichuan battered and bruised. The gap only widened, killing any suspense, and Shanghai easily overwhelmed Sichuan, handing them a seventh consecutive defeat. It’s clear Sichuan has become numb to losses, and it remains uncertain if they will manage a single win this season!

Guangsha vs. Shenzhen. As the defending champions, Guangsha had recently strung together multiple wins and faced the bottom-ranked Shenzhen team this round, a matchup expected to be relatively easy. Guangsha continued their hot streak, dominating the court with absolute control and showcasing their team strength. Every player contributed, spreading the scoring around, steadily increasing the lead and effectively ending the contest early. Guangsha executed excellent team basketball, with six players scoring in double digits, thoroughly dismantling Shenzhen and securing their fifth consecutive victory to reclaim the top spot!
