Long Island Nets fall to Cruise, 116-105, despite huge game from Ty Wallace, go winless in Motor City

Ty Wallace has emerged as a major contributor to the Long Island Nets since arriving in Long Island, but his 37 points Monday night weren’t enough to elevate the Nets over the first-seeded Motor City Cruise.

After coming up short against the G League affiliate of the Detroit Pistons on Saturday night, the Nets weren’t able to avenge their loss, suffering a 116-105 defeat. After a season-best five game winning streak, Long Island has dropped two games in a row, good for an 8-8 record on the year.

Their .500 mark still has the Nets firmly in the playoff picture, a goal that has been re-iterated all year by members of Adam Caporn’s squad.
