PETALING JAYA: Asean Basketball League outfit KL Dragons hung on to the fourth and last spot for the playoffs as Philippine Patriots denied Brunei Barracudas – Dragons closest challenger – a place by winning 87-65 at the Ynares Sports Arena in Manila yesterday.

Before yesterday’s match, Barracudas were two points behind Dragons on 20 points with Dragons having played all 15 of their matches.

If Barracudas had beaten league leaders Patriots they would have pipped Dragons for the last playoffs spot.

It was their first win over the Indonesians in three meetings. Satria Muda took the previous two matches 91-67 and 69-57.

Although Dragons were victorious in the match, it was not until yesterday after the Patriots-Barracudas match that Dragons coach Goh Cheng Huat started his celebrations.
