Singapore Slingers began their ASEAN Basketball League (ABL) pre-season with a 97-72 defeat of Rain or Shine Elasto Painters from the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA).
Neo Beng Siang has been appointed Head Coach of the Singapore Slingers – the first Singaporean to head a professional basketball team.
Arsego resigned his position as head coach of the Slingers to return to Australia to be with his family. Before he left, he gave this exclusive interview to Red Sports.
The Singapore Slingers head coach Frank Arsego has decided not to return for the second season of the ASEAN Basketball League (ABL) later this year.

The Singapore Slingers suffered a heartbreaking 76-86 home loss in the decisive third game of the inaugural ASEAN Basketball League (ABL) semi-final series against Indonesian club Satria Muda BritAma to bow out of the championship.
