SIOUX FALLS (CBSMiami/AP) — A team having a record-breaking season in the NBA Development League has a South Florida connection…sort of.
The Sioux Falls Skyforce have set the NBA D-League record for wins in a season, getting their 39th on Tuesday by topping the Iowa Energy 125-107.
The Skyforce, an affiliate of the Miami Heat, are 39-9 with two games remaining. The previous D-League record for wins was 38, set by the Los Angeles D-Fenders in 2011-12.
“I’m proud of the group,” Skyforce coach Dan Craig told The Associated Press by phone after the game.
