POWER came into this game with something of a playoff mindset.

UCU Canons didn’t and the result was a massive blow-out, a 98-68 victory that made Power 2010 FUBA men’s division one regular-season champions and the top-seed for the forthcoming playoffs.

“I told my players ‘let’s play it like a playoff game, like it is the last game of the finals,” Power coach Bernice Nkunda said.

In the other game, Nkumba Marines outwitted St Michael 100-68.
