DOHA: Former champions Manila Express Cargo-One Family snapped Power Horse Energy Drink’s winning streak to win, 88-72.

In Division 2, thrill and excitement filled the air in the clash between equally strong teams, KIA Motors and Juan Pinoy that ended in the deadlock in regulation time. 
Pinoy however lost its steam in the extra five-minute extension and bowed out to KIA, 93-82.
In the other games, Eric Tamayo shone again in his 33-point rally to lift Smart Gilas 3 victory over Gulf Warehousing Co., winning 73-70.
