ZHUJI, China, Jan. 22 (Xinhua) -- With five players scoring in double digits, the Nanjing Monkey Kings ended their 12-game losing streak by stunning the Fujian Sturgeons 104-90 in the Chinese Basketball Association (CBA) here on Friday.

Arnett Moultrie made his jump shot to open the scoring for Nanjing, followed by a three-pointer by Yang Haozhe. And another long-range shot by Sun Siyao extended the advantage to nine.

Fujian took back the initiative and staged an 8-0 run to trim the deficit to two points at the halftime break.

Although Trae Golden and Liu Mingyu helped Fujian to tie the game several times, both Shirelijan and Moultrie kept their shooting accuracy to ensure the eventual victory for Nanjing, while Fujian suffered its six-game skid.

Shirelijan notched a team-high 27 points, three rebounds, and eight assists, while Moultrie and Wang Shengwei added 18 and 17 points respectively. Enditem
