ABL Invitational 2023 results of Saigon Heat on January 7: Vietnam's representative is unbeaten in Singapore
Right after the moment of transition from the old year to the new year, Vietnamese basketball will immediately kick off with the presence of Saigon Heat at ABL - Southeast Asia Professional Basketball Tournament.
Unlike the 10 seasons held in the past, the 11th season called "ABL Invitational 2023" will take place in the form of concentrated competition. But instead of taking place in the same place, ABL 2023 is divided into 5 stages, taking place from now to early March in 5 different cities in the region.
The first four stages will be the qualifying round (Regular Season), held in Singapore, Batam (Indonesia), Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia) and Ho Chi Minh City (Vietnam). Stage 5 is a knockout round that has not yet finalized the venue.
Saigon Heat representing Vietnam will be one of eight teams participating in ABL 2023. The remaining seven teams include the Cooly Bangkok Tigers, Hong Kong Eastern, Louvre Indonesia, Macau Black Bears, NS Matrix, Singapore Slingers and Zamboanga Valientes.
