A Night of Records in Dubai
The evening in Dubai belonged to Isaiah Briscoe, whose 45 points rewrote the record books for the BCL Asia‑East Final 6 2026. The American guard erupted for a career‑high night, eclipsing the previous high of 39 set by Mike Efevberha and becoming the first player to score 40 points in the 2026 season.
South China Athletic found themselves in a 16‑point hole early, but a surge of offensive firepower turned the tide. Glen Yang's timely three‑pointer gave the team the lead, and Briscoe's relentless scoring kept the momentum rolling.
The final score of 110‑103 not only delivered a thrilling finish but also cemented Briscoe's 45 points as the most ever recorded in a BCL Asia event since Amir Saoud's 50‑point outing in 2018. No other player approached his total, underscoring the uniqueness of the performance.
With the victory, South China secured the No. 1 seed in Group B and will advance to the knockout crossover Semi‑Finals this Saturday. The win highlights the team's resilience and positions Briscoe's historic night as a defining moment in the tournament's history.
