Ham-Kam – Kristiansund BK

A thrilling 2‑2 draw at Briskeby kept Ham‑Kam perched in tenth place with 23 points, still trailing the leaders by a wide margin but having secured six wins from 20 matches. Kristiansund, sitting 14th on 19 points, matched their opponents in a game that mirrored their season‑long head‑to‑head record – the second stalemate between the sides this campaign.
