October 18, Shanghai:
Thakral XNBA Legends 86, Chinese National Team 73

Kiki Vandeweghe scored 20 points and Darnell Valentine 19 to lead the XNBA. The XNBA Legends, playing against China’s zone defense (which one does not see in the NBA), attacked from the beginning and built a substantial lead. Moses Malone, who did not arrive in time for the first game, was a potent factor on defense for the XNBA in the pivot even though he did not score. Center Wang Zhizhi led China with 17 points and Li Nan had 16.
