After the round robin tournament, Malaysia, by virtue of defeating the defending champions the Philippines, won the championship for their second title since the 1979 edition. As of 2017, Malaysia is the only other country to win the men's basketball championship as the Philippines managed to reclaim the title in the 1991 edition and haven't relinquished it since (defending the title for the 12th consecutive time).
Meanwhile, Thailand, after being undefeated in the women's division, won their first ever championship, thus ending the hosts Malaysia's reign of six-time defending champions.
Tournament format
For both the men's and the women's tournament, the competition was on a round robin format, wherein the top team at the end of the single round wins the gold medal, with the next two team will take home the silver and bronze medals, respectively.
