With Sean Kilpatrick off to the NBA, newly acquired point guard Russ Smith took over the scoring load for the Delaware 87ers last night, scoring 37 points off of the bench in a 119-104 victory over Raptors 905.
The Delaware 87ers are a significantly different unit than the one that headed out to the D-League Showcase earlier this month. Sevens' head coach Kevin Young isn't a fan of the event due to its hectic nature, and he's probably even less enthusiastic about the level of turnover his roster has seen over the last 10 days.
On Tuesday, former Sevens' guard Sean Kilpatrick became the seventh player to make the leap from the D-League to the NBA this season after signing a 10-day contract with the Denver Nuggets.
