Red hot Association Sportive de Sale on Monday beat Kano Pillars 112-83 points at the majestic Salle Omnisport de Rades, Tunisia.

Soufiane Kourodu added 22 points, 9 rebounds, Wayne Arnold also made 22 points while Abdellhakim Zoulta added 17 points and 7 assists while Yaccine Baeri made 15 points in a game hugely dominated by the Tunisians.

AS Sale led by 11points at the end of the first quarter (13-24) but could not maintain the momentum in the second as Pillars rallied back to win the second quarter (29-25) reducing the deficit to 4 points going into the break (42-49).
