In the duel between the two top teams in the Pacific Division, Los Angeles snapped San Francisco's four-game win streak 130-110.

ABA: In the midi-week before Saturday's All-Star game, Virginia appeared to be Virginia Slims rather than the East Division-leading Squires, losing games to fourth-place Carolina 114—104 and second-place Kentucky 124-114. The Colonels won two of three games, edging Memphis 117-110 in addition to their Virginia win but succumbing to Indiana 137-124.

In a game so dull that one man yelled, "I's the Super Bowl on ice," Chicago teammates Chico Maki and Bobby Hull scored a pair of goals from opposite sides of the rink to lead the West to a 2-1 victory over the East in the All-Star game. Yvan Cournoyer got the East's lone score.
