PETALING JAYA: It sounds too good to be true but the Malaysian Basketball Association (MABA) are offering a massive reward for the national men’s and women’s squads if they win a gold medal at the Thailand SEA Games in December.

MABA president Datuk Seri Lee Tian Hock said each player will receive a condominium unit worth RM330,000 if they end the wait to win gold since the women’s squad last achieved it in the 2017 edition in Kuala Lumpur.
