The City Reapers finally got a win! After dropping five straight and falling to the bottom of the standings with a record of 1-9, the City Reapers finally got back in the win column with a 68-65 win over the Blue Checks on Friday night. Jeremy Jenkins returned after a one game absence and delivered a monster night with a 27 point, 16 rebound double-double to help the Reapers move into a tie for eighth 🤯

Howard Williams had his best game as a City Reaper, finishing the evening with a stat line of 14 points and seven boards which included some big threes down the stretch. Ty Sutton may not have had a massive night in the scoring department but he was still responsible for commanding the offense which resulted in a team-high six assists 💀

The Blue Checks were without star Yohance Connor, so Dream Tryout standout Santonio Waide stepped up in his absence, delivering a big time 23 points and seven assists to lead the Blue Checks in both categories. Elhadji Diallo just missed out on a double-double, as he recorded 12 rebounds and eight points in the team’s narrow loss 💪

In the second game of the night, the YNG Dreamerz took care of business, blowing Jelly Fam out of the water with a final score of 111-70. The Dreamerz reminded everyone why they are the reigning champs and should unquestionably be one of the title favorites heading into the playoffs. Class of 2027 guard Matt Allen had a breakout game, finishing the night with a smooth double-double of 29 points and 11 rebounds 🏆

Isaac Ellis continued to bolster his MVP case, finishing one assist and one rebound shy of a triple-double, as he ended the night with a stat line of 20 points, nine rebounds and nine assists. The best rebounder at OTE, K’majay Jenkins, finished with his fourth double-double of the season, logging an even ten points and ten rebounds while also recording four big time blocks 😳

Jelly Fam never gave up and team leader Yandel German personified that mentality, as he ended the night with a team-high 26 points and eight assists in 32 minutes of work. Torrey Brooks Jr. is having a sneaky, under-the-radar season with another night of 23 points which moves him just outside the top ten in average points per game at OTE 🍇
