Caledonia Gladiators' 33-point cushion at the midway point of the third quarter proved enough to weather a furious fourth-quarter comeback and end a two-game losing run with an 87–79 win over B. Braun Sheffield Sharks. The hosts had dominated the first half, building that commanding advantage after winning the opening two quarters 18–4 and 32–20 to lead 50–24 at the break. Sheffield mounted a genuine threat in the final period, reeling off an 18-0 run midway through the quarter to cut the deficit to just five at 74–66. Inside the final two minutes it remained a one-possession game, but Caledonia's early control proved decisive. Sheffield took the loss after beginning their campaign with two straight wins; Caledonia, now 2–2, stopped the bleeding at 1–2. Terry Roberts led Caledonia with 17 points on 5 of 11 shooting, and Isiah Small anchored the boards with a double-double of 15 points and 17 rebounds, though he managed just 3 of 11 from the floor. Al-Amir Dawes added 16 points. For Sheffield, Lu'cye Patterson's 20 points on 6 of 15 came too late; Daniel Gherezgher (15 PTS, 5/7 FG) and Adrian Delph (15 PTS, 6/10 FG) pressed hard but couldn't force the comeback home.
