The Long Island Nets exacted revenge on the College Parks Skyhawks, the Atlanta Hawks’ G League affiliate, Saturday night, coming out on top 117-110, at Nassau Coliseum. Long Island has snapped their three-game losing streak and improved to 3-7 in Cup play, with each win coming on their home floor.
Long Island was looking to bounce back against College Park after suffering a 19-point blowout loss to the Skyhawks on Thursday night in Uniondale. That win marked the first for Atlanta’s G League affiliate this year.
The Nets affiliate placed seven players in double figures, led by Kessler Edwards, their two-way 3-and-D prospect; Day’Ron Sharpe, on assignment from the Nets; and Craig Randall II, who signed with Long Island out of the team’s tryout session before the season.
