Doha: Al Sadd claimed third place in the 2024-2025 season of the Qatar Basketball League with a 96-86 win over Al Ahli on Monday evening at Al Gharafa Arena, in front of a vibrant crowd and a fiercely competitive atmosphere.

The game was thrilling from the outset, concluding the first quarter in a 25-25 deadlock. However, Al Sadd took control in the second quarter, outscoring their opponents 22-18. They maintained their lead in the third quarter 28-22, while the final quarter ended in another tie at 21-21, ultimately securing the bronze medal for Al Sadd.
