MANSFIELD, TX: Back In Business | This Week's Recap and Week 7 Predictions
UHoops at Mansfield was on hiatus for 2 weeks due to turf field maintenance, but got back to business this week with a couple of good games!
This Week:
Lunch Ballers struggled to produce efficient offense as they went up against new powerhouse team The Fundamentalists, as they were missing one of their main scorers and passers Vince Benn who averages almost 17 points a game. Adam Rowe put up his highest point total for the season with 33 points, but unfortunately this was over half of team's points in the 63-86 loss. Lunch Ballers go to 3-3 on the season, while The Fundamentalists move up to 5-1.
UHoopaz are back to their "old" ways, racking up 130 points (they hit 137 last season) against a still struggling We Get Buckets franchise in a 32 point victory. UHoopaz guard Desmond Ryder managed to get a season high of 18 points as well as 7 assists in the win as the move to an even 3-3 for the season.
Week 7 puts We Get Buckets up against Lunch Ballers in Game 1, and The Fundamentalists vs UHoopaz.
Game 1: We Get Buckets vs Lunch Ballers
Though We Get Buckets' captain and main scorer Chauncey Lusk has been phenomenal, averaging 35.2 points this season, the team as a whole lacks structure on both ends of the floor. A win is very possible for them this week, but Lunch Ballers plan to have Vince Benn back, and if that's the case the chances look a bit slim. Lunch Ballers win by 14.
Game 2: The Fundamentalists vs UHoopaz
This is a tough one. It will definitely be the game of the night, and both teams have weapons. But UHoopaz are scoring wizards, and even if they do lack in the defensive department, if they begin to score the way that they did this past week, The Fundamentalists are in trouble. I think it's safe to say, UHoopaz win by 8 .
