Regular Season Round 5: Giants - Airs 117-83

Date: May 6, 2023
Giants' fans can celebrate the first win of their team after five consecutive losses. They used home court advantage to defeat Airs (2-4) 117-83 on Saturday. Giants looked well-organized offensively handing out 21 assists. South Sudanese-Australian center Matur Maker (208-1998) nailed 21 points and 6 rebounds for the winning side and the former international guard Alexander McNaught (185-2002) accounted for 16 points and 6 assists. Five Giants players scored in double figures. Giants' coach felt very confident that he used entire bench which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games. American guard David Azore (194-1999, college: UT Arlington) came up with 20 points and the other American import Armon Fletcher (196-1995, college: SIU) added 16 points and 8 rebounds respectively for Airs in the defeat. Giants maintains tenth place with 1-5 record. Loser Airs dropped to the seventh position with four games lost. They share it with Hawks and Saints. Giants will meet league's second-placed Rams in the next round and it will be quite challenging to get another victory. Airs will play against Hawks (#7) and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
