MADISON, WI – The Madison Mavericks never trailed in their 100-to-79 victory over the Chi-town Rebels.
The Mavericks improved to 3-1 on the season and remain in the top five of the Official Basketball Association power rankings.
Joey Werner proved to be an unstoppable force in the paint with a team-high of 23 points. The Mavs utilized the mismatch of the 6-foot-eight center to perfection resulting in 15 second-half points for Werner.
“Oh, man he makes things a lot easier for us,” Mavericks Head Coach Curtrel Robinson said about Werner’s play. “He takes two or three bodies to take him out and that opens things up for the perimeter.
