CS Cold Storage made it three out of three after defeating Flex-link Enterprise 65-59 in Group B of the Goh Hock Kee (GHK) Trophy Men's Basketball Tournament last night at the Tutong Chung Hwa Middle School Basketball court in Tutong.

With only eight players available for the game, Khoo Chin Kai produced the goods at the offensive end for Cold Storage with a game-high of 24 points including five treys. Lim Liang Wei also finished in double figures with 17 points to his name in the triumph.

On the other hand, Tan Ye Wei led the way for Flex-Link with 14 points while the duo of Lee Huat Beng and Justin Yong added 10 points each in a losing effort.

Khoo got to work early and finished with 10 points in the opening frame. He was nailing his shots from the outside that helped Cold Storage take an 18-16 lead into the second quarter.

Flex-Link were getting the ball into the paint work with their size advantage. They were also covering Lim well to prevent him from being as effective on offence. It was a low-scoring affair in the second period as Cold Storage remained infront 24-22 at halftime. Neither team could break away. Flex-Link were facing problems with several players being hit with foul trouble. Lim got to work on offence for eight points in the quarter but their advantage was 42-41 heading into the final stanza.

Cold Storage picked up on defence in the last 10-minute frame and they were forcing turnovers to score on the break. Flex-Link were still within reach midway through the last period but it was not enough for them to close the gap as they fell to their first loss in the competition. Read More...
