Al Nasr Basketball Team claimed second place in the UAE Open Federation Cup for Men following a narrow 103–100 loss to Shabab Al Ahli in the final played yesterday at Shabab Al Ahli Hall in Al Mamzar.
The final delivered an exciting and closely contested game, with both teams battling intensely until the closing seconds. Al Nasr produced a strong performance in the fourth quarter and came very close to securing the title, driven by an impressive offensive comeback and outstanding three-point shooting.
Harris, Hassan Abdullah, and Roy Devine led the scoring surge for “Al Ameed,” helping the team regain momentum and put the title within reach during the final minutes.
However, a few decisive moments late in the game allowed the hosts to edge ahead and secure the win in the final stages.
