After an electric win on Monday, the Long Island Nets dropped the first of a back-to-back set against the Fort Wayne Mad Ants, the G League affiliate team of the Indiana Pacers, on Wednesday night, 115 to 125.
Long Island took a 115-113 lead with 3:23 remaining off of a RaiQuan Gray running floating hook shot. From there on, they would not score again.
Long Island head coach Adam Caporn explained the disappointing finish for the Long Island:
“[I] don’t want to take anything away from [the Mad Ants], but I thought we could have communicated better, we just missed obvious switches, guys … just had a lot of miscommunications.
