Basic didn't have too much breathing room in their contest against Chaparral in their previous meeting back in December of 2024, but they still walked away with a 70-65 win. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was the Cowboys' Qualib Ghallab, who dropped a double-double with 22 points and 11 rebounds.
