Match Overview

Playing at the Changhua County Stadium, the Dreamers showcased their depth and defensive intensity. They forced the Kings into 18 turnovers and converted them into 28 points on the fast break. The 36-point margin of victory was the Dreamers' largest of the season and snapped a two-game losing streak against the Kings.

Key Moments

• First-quarter surge: The Dreamers opened with a 12–0 run capped by a three-pointer from guard Lin Chun-chieh, setting the tone for the night.
• Second-quarter lockdown: New Taipei managed just 13 points in the second quarter as the Dreamers stretched the lead to 54–32 at halftime.
• Third-quarter knockout: A 15–2 run to start the third period effectively ended any hope of a Kings comeback, with home forward Brandon Gilbeck throwing down two alley-oops during the spurt.
• Fourth-quarter rout: The Dreamers’ bench players maintained the intensity, outscoring the Kings’ reserves 28–12 in the final frame.

Standout Players

Brandon Gilbeck anchored the Dreamers' defense with 5 blocks and 12 rebounds, while adding 18 points on 8-of-10 shooting. Lin Chun-chieh led all scorers with 24 points, hitting 6 of 9 from beyond the arc. For the Kings, Mike Singletary fought through foul trouble to record 15 points and 6 rebounds, but received little support as the rest of the lineup combined for just 31.8% shooting.

Impact on the Standings

The victory improved the Dreamers' record to 18–9, keeping them firmly in second place in the six-team league. The Kings fell to 14–13, dropping to fourth. The two teams are now separated by four games in the win column with nine regular-season games remaining.
