Core Pacific on the other hand, bested the 1995 Savers Depot, 45-36, for their fourth win in five tries. Dave Ting led the winning team with 10 points while Serg Al Go Bui and Joseph Lo combined for 16 points and 12 rebounds.
Meanwhile, the 1993 King Properties kept the 1992 Silver Anniversary winless with a 47-38 bashing to climb to 2-3 while the latter fell to 0-5 for the season.
