On a night when one team clinched the top seed for the playoffs, another team emerged as a late contender in the Hawai’i Development League.
Island Movers, led by the surprise appearance of University of Hawai’i point guard Brocke Stepteau, defeated Ultimate Roofing, 113-93, in HD League action on Monday night at Saint Francis School Gymnasium.
Stepteau, a 5-foot-9 senior for the Rainbow Warriors, had 23 points and 14 assists to lead Island Movers to its first win of the summer league. Island Movers was 0-3 prior to Stepteau’s arrival.
“They put me on this team, Island Movers, I don’t know why,” he said.
