The Long Island Nets suffered their sixth defeat of the G League regular season on Tuesday night, falling to the College Park Skyhawks, the G League affiliate team of the Atlanta Hawks, 105 to 102. The team has yet to achieve two straight wins or losses (since Sunday’s victory against G League Ignite does not count in the league standings) since early January.
After leading by nine points with under six minutes, the Skyhawks mounted a run led by Cat Barber and Jalen Johnson, a Hawks draft pick in 2021. College Park tied the game at 98 with a little under two minutes remaining, and then subsequently jumped ahead by a basket.
