Nha Trang Dolphins defeated Danang Dragons 112-78 in the VBA on Friday, extending their dominance over their rivals. The visitors took control early and never looked back, turning what could have been a close contest into a comfortable victory.
The 34-point margin reflected a straightforward afternoon for the away side. Danang struggled to find their rhythm, while Nha Trang moved the ball with confidence and punished every opportunity. The hosts managed to score in the final quarter, but the gap had grown too large to bridge.
These two sides met again just two days ago, when Nha Trang edged past 94-90. That result made this latest encounter feel like a repeat, only this time the outcome was less in doubt. Danang have now dropped five straight games, including three heavy defeats to the same opponents in recent weeks.
On the other side, Nha Trang have shown more consistency. Five wins from twelve matches puts them third in the table, though the points column tells a different story — both teams sit on zero, a reminder that the standings are still forming. What matters is the trajectory, and the Dolphins are moving in the right direction.
For Danang, the situation grows more pressing. Twelve losses from twelve games is a record no club wants to carry, and the gap to safety is unlikely to close without a dramatic shift. They have nothing to lose, which perhaps explains the attempt to fight back in the final period, even if the result remained beyond reach.
