SHENYANG, Jan. 21 (Xinhua) -- A scoring burst in the last three quarters lifted the Liaoning Flying Leopards to a 100-90 road win over the Zhejiang Golden Bulls in the Chinese Basketball Association (CBA) on Tuesday.
After Zhejiang took a lead 21-25 in the first quarter, Liaoning took back the initiative with a strong counter-attack, but only managed to narrow the deficit by one point going into the half-time break.
The last two quarters saw Liaoning pair Lance Stephenson and Brandon Bass combine for 53 points, with Bass notching a double-double with 24 points and 13 rebounds.
Although Marcus Edward Denmon and Sylven Landesberg succeeded in tying the scores for Zhejiang on several occasions, frequent substitutions made the team less defensive and helped their opponents close out a 10-point win.
Liaoning's Han Dejun also notched a double-double of 17 points and 11 rebounds, becoming the only Chinese player in the game to do so. Enditem.
