Shahrdari dragged Al Riyadi to a sudden death by way of a 95-85 Game 2 win in the FIBA WASL-West Asia League Season 2 Final on Wednesday night.
The reigning three-time Iranian Basketball League champion showed that it can win games even with just one foreign reinforcement after dragging Al Riyadi to a do-or-die affair by way of a 95-85 Game 2 win in the FIBA WASL-West Asia Season 2 Final on Monday night.
“This game was very important. They spend much more money than us. They have, I think, five foreign players, and we have only one,” said a proud Vahedi.
Will Cherry starred in the victory with a game-high 25 points, 5 rebounds, and 5 assists, together with 4 steals and 1 block in yet another all-around performance that left their faithful that packed the Azadi Basketball Hall beaming with so much pride.
“We had a really tough loss in Lebanon and I'm really happy for my team and for this game. We played really well. I want to congratulate the coaching staff and my teammates,” Vahedi said.
