Derek Rice, last season's rookie of Miami Heat, cracked down Liaoning Hunters 94-88 with 40 points one-handedly.

Trailing 10 points in the first quarter, Rice erupted from the

bench to score 18 points in the second one to usurp the lead on 50-38.

Micah Brand had one of his best game this season, scoring 49 points and grabbing 15 rebounds to lead the Beijing Ducks to a 118-111 overtime win over Shanxi Zhongyu.
