With four minutes and 39 seconds left in the third quarter Wednesday night, Duane Washington Jr. casually sank a 28-footer to put his Westchester Knicks up, 92-68, over the Long Island Nets in the G League’s Battle of the ‘Burbs.
But from that point on, it was all Long Island, as the Nets affiliate outscored the Knicks affiliate, 58- 29, to win in overtime, 126-121. There were a number of heroes in the huge comeback, but few bigger than the Nets new two-way point guard Jacob Gilyard and wing Davion Warren.
GIlyard in his second game with Long Island put up his second double-double, 17 points and 11 assists.
