The Long Island Nets are struggling at 2-9, sitting at the bottom of the G League's East Division. After a tough road trip, they returned home but lost two close games to the Delaware Blue Coats, affiliated with the Philadelphia 76ers.
Dariq Whitehead shone with a career-high 21 points in one game, while Cui “Jacky” Yongxi made his return, contributing minimally. The Nets' AJ Lawson has been a standout, scoring 35 and 27 points in consecutive games.
Next, the Nets will face the College Park Skyhawks and the Maine Celtics, hoping to improve their record.
