Home United Basketball Club has got something for Singapore basketball fans to cheer about when they came in Third, behind runner-up Philippines and host country Malaysia in last week Johore International Invitation Cup.
The tournament consists of team from China Parklane Club, Indonesia Selection Team, Philippines C selection Team, Hong Kong National Team, Malaysia National Team and local Home United Basketball Club.
Home lead by Captain Koh Meng Koon and on loan Pathman s/o Matialakan (both currently playing for the Slingers) got off a flying start when they beat China Parklane by 23 points in their first game. They then went off to hold back Hong Kong National Team in a nail-biting and closely contested game. Home came from behind in the final quarter with Derek Aw making a buzzer beater to brush off Hong Kong with a 2 points win.
It was then downfall for Home when they suffered 3 straight losses in their remaining three games. But their two wins were enough to secure third placing.
Kudos to Home United, for making Singapore proud in the basketball arena once again.
