BEIJING, Nov. 4 -- The coreless Guangdong nipped Xinjiang 129-127 in the seventh round of the Chinese Basketball Association (CBA) league on Sunday, extending their winning streak to 7.

Zhao Rui and CBA rookie Du Runwang combined for 65 points for the home team while the key player Yi Jianlian, Zhou Peng and Sonny Weems were absent.

Meng duo, with 10 points and 4 rebounds though, finished the buzzer beater in the overtime and sealed the victory.

Darius Adams and Abudushalamu Abudurexiti combined for 92 points and 27 rebounds for Xinjiang. Adams scored a stunning 61 points and contributes 11 assists.
