The Fyllingen Lions took a major stride toward the series championship with a convincing 94–77 victory over the Kongsberg Miners. Although the Miners remained competitive through the first half, trailing by just three points at the break (41–38), Fyllingen came out in the third quarter. Two quick three-pointers from Eric Fongué set the tone, igniting a momentum shift that the home team never relinquished.
