    TAICHUNG Wagor Suns earned back-to-back wins in the T1 League after a close 108-102 victory over the Taoyuan Leopards on Sunday at National Taiwan University of Sport Gymnasium.

    Palestinian star Sani Sakakini put Taichung on his back with his 29 points on 3-of-7 shooting from deep, to go with 14 boards, and three assists.
