Arsalan Kazemi finished with a game-best efficiency rating of 28 behind his 8 points and 18 rebounds - two away from the league record he himself set - along with 4 assists, 2 steals, and 1 block.
“We had a strategy for the game but the most important part of our game was the performance of our players. For the most part I want to mention that we controlled the tolerance of our game,” Shahrdari coach Mostafa Hashemi said.
