After five weeks recovering from a separated shoulder, Dzanan Musa picked up where he left off, dominating the G League in the Long Island Nets 135-127 victory over the Texas Legends in Dallas. It was the conference-leading Nets’ 20th win.
In 25 minutes, the Nets first round pick scored 20 points, handed out eight assists, grabbed four rebounds and went to the line nine times without missing. Musa separated his left shoulder in a G League game December 16.
After falling behind early, the Nets simply dominated with 51 points in the third quarter (not a typo) going from a five point halftime deficit to a 10-point lead entering the fourth quarter.
