PETALING JAYA: Westports Malaysia Dragons will be looking for some payback when they line up against HiTech Bangkok City in the opening Asean Basketball League (ABL) finals game at the Maba Stadium on Saturday.

Having lost twice to the Thai team in the regular season, head coach Ariel Vanguardia, who was named the ABL’s Coach of the Year, has warned his players to be on guard in the best-of-three-game finals.
