Whittington's Season Comes to End

Shayne Whittington's rookie season came to an end on Sunday night. The Pacers rookie, on assignment with the Fort Wayne Mad Ants of the NBA's Development League, had helped the Mad Ants make a run to the D-League Finals.

After dropping Game 1 in Fort Wayne, the Mad Ants couldn't keep up with the Santa Cruz Warriors in California. Santa Cruz pulled away for a 109-96 victory to sweep the best-of-three series.
