The Jaguar Conference will see Bounty Colts, with their feisty style of play, looking to seal the Playoff series against McDoom/Prospect Kobras after a fifteen-point victory, with the two teams sharing the court on Saturday igniting the action.

The second game of the night will see UG Trojans looking to tie the series and maintain a chance to advance closer to the conference final, after facing a twenty-point defeat in the first game of the playoff series against the Stabroek Eagles.
At the Conference Finals, teams will play the best-of-three games to determine who advances to the National Finals. The team winning the tournament would receive $1M along with trophies, while the runners-up would receive $500,000 plus trophies.
