Havana, August 6 (RHC)-- Cuban Marlon Diaz stood out on Friday and led his team, the Guaros de Lara, to the second win in a row over the Gaiteros de Zulia in the Venezuelan Professional Basketball Super League.

Diaz accumulated 18 points and nine rebounds, leading in both departments for the Crepusculares, for which he deserved the most valuable player of the game award.

His compatriot and teammate, Neysser Coutin, present in the regular team, stood out under the boards with seven rebounds despite his scarce offensive contribution with only four points scored.

The game held at the Domo Bolivariano of Barquisimeto ended with a score of 80-72 in favor of the locals, which completed the sweep against the Zulia team.

With this, the Guaros reached four wins with seven losses and, although they still show a negative win-loss balance, they left the last place of the western conference in their western division, precisely relegating their rivals.

The team from Barquisimeto came within three games of the division leader with two games in hand and still has a chance to qualify for the playoffs.

Since their arrival, the Havana-born players have taken permanent positions among the main quintet and stand out as luxury reinforcements for the Loros, who accumulated a balance of three wins and three losses after exhibiting a dismal 1-4 record before the arrival of the players from Cuba.
