In their first game back at the Nassau Coliseum in 612 days, the Long Island Nets defeated the Capital City Go-Go in an overtime thriller, 109-103. Capital City, the G League affiliate of the Washington Wizards, led for the majority of the game, but Long Island fought back in the fourth quarter and won it in OT.
Postgame, head coach Adam Caporn credited solving defensive problems in the second half for the win. “Today, I thought we responded well. We changed some things defensively, played more physical, cleaned up some of the switching, and put our effort into that,” he said.
