The Santa Cruz Warriors (29-19) have really shifted into a new gear with the season quickly coming to a close, winning nine of their past 11 games scheduled in the month of March.
After defeating the Los Angeles D-Fenders 134-124 on Saturday at the Toyota Sports Center in El Segundo, CA, the Sea Dubs are now within one game of clinching the fourth and final seed of the NBA D-League Western Conference.
A Northern Arizona Suns (22-25) win over the Sioux Falls Skyforce (26-20) on Sunday would clinch a playoff berth for Santa Cruz right off the bat; otherwise, Santa Cruz would have to wrap up their 4-game road trip with a win over the Salt Lake City Stars on Monday.
