"Lawson led all scorers with 28 points and made four 3s. He hit shots when it mattered most - he hit a triple to put the 905 up one after starting the second quarter on a 13-4 run, making up poor first quarter performance. He also beat the halftime buzzer and gave the 905 a one-point lead."
"Joiner saved the best for last. He scored half his total points in the fourth quarter, shooting a perfect 3-3 from the field and 3-3 from the charity stripe. He threw a nice dime, over the heads of two Knickerbockers, into Guerrier down low for an easy 2, forcing a Knicks timeout."
"When the ball wasn't in Joiner's hands, he impacted the game in different ways. In the second quarter, he came over to AJ Hoggard, expecting to get the ball or a hand-off. Later, when the Knicks missed an open corner 3 and had a second-chance opportunity, it was Joiner getting his hand in the passing lane and deflecting the ball that infused some energy into the 905 defence."
The 905 secured a tight victory with A.J. Lawson leading all scorers with 28 points and four made 3-pointers. Lawson delivered crucial shots throughout the game, including a triple to take a one-point lead after a second-quarter run, a halftime buzzer-beater, and a late four-point play. Jarkel Joiner contributed 22 points with strong fourth-quarter performance, shooting perfectly from the field and free throw line. Quincy Guerrier added 20 points. The game featured defensive intensity, with Joiner deflecting passes and creating turnovers. Tyson Degenhart sealed the victory with free throws, while the 905's back-to-back 3-pointers and opponent miscues proved decisive in the close contest.
