Isaiah Gore Guard (PBA Local 167)- “The Machine” as the commentary called him, picked up his game in the second half with some slick passes and crafty buckets to help his team propel to the victory. In this contest his court vision stood out as he hit cutting teammates and even made a few full court dimes.
Kristan Thomas Guard (PBA Local 167)- Thomas is another nice guard for this squad. He hit a few clutch jumpers including some treys and finished well in transition. I love this kid’s poise and ability to score within the team’s offense.
Chase Martin Forward (PBA Local 167)- Martin came up big inside as PBA put the game away. He got position and used a nice touch and even finished through contact. His baskets were key with helping them hold on to the lead.
