SINGAPORE - There was no champagne or roses for the Singapore Slingers on Friday night as the hosts were beaten 79-68 by Malaysian side Kuala Lumpur Dragons at the OCBC Arena.

The home side paid the price for their profligacy, as they made just 10 out of 42 shots in the first half to trail the Dragon 38-23 at the break. Despite outscoring Dragons in the final period, the Slingers could not stop the visitors from clinching the victory, 79-68, at the final buzzer.Slingers coach Neo Beng Siang said:"We didn't set the tempo at the start of the game and Kuala Lumpur Dragons did a good job - they were hungrier than us.

"Defensively, we need to adjust a bit because we allowed them to have easy lay-ups and we didn't hustle, we need to pick up our pace."
