Dubai Basketball continued their impressive start to the season, extending their unbeaten run in the ABA League with a hard-fought 81:77 victory over one of the league’s newest addition, Romanian side U-BT Cluj-Napoca.

Following strong performances in their debut EuroLeague campaign, the city’s first home basketball club once again demonstrated composure and depth to remain flawless across competitions.

The matchup against Cluj-Napoca, another new entrant to the league, was closely contested despite Dubai controlling the pace for most of the game. Late in the fourth quarter, the Romanian side mounted a strong comeback attempt, led by Dusan Miletié, who nearly turned the tide on his own. However, Dubai maintained focus in the final minutes to secure the win and preserve their perfect record.
