Are the Long Island Nets in danger of falling out of the playoffs?
After their fifth straight loss Monday night, 100-80, to the Fort Wayne Mad Ants in Indiana, Long Island holds the sixth and final seed in the East. With a record of 16-13, they’re only one game ahead of the two teams tied for seventh seed, the College Park Skyhawks and Westchester Knicks. Both teams hold the tiebreaker on Long Island.
Once again, Craig Randall II, the G League’s second leading scorer, was out for personal reasons and without Randall’s nearly 27 points a game, the Nets offense fell apart.
