Long Island Nets hold off Memphis, reclaim East lead
The Long Island Nets hung on down the stretch for a 137-132 win over the Memphis Hustle Sunday at Nassau Coliseum and moved back into 1st place in the East.
Theo Pinson drained seven 3-pointers Sunday at Nassau Coliseum and the Long Island Nets made seven of eight free throws in the final 1:21 to hold off the Memphis Hustle for a 137-132 win that moved the Nets back into first place in the NBA G League’s Eastern Conference.
The win was the third straight for Long Island (24-14) and completed a road-home back-to-back sweep after the Nets beat Raptors 905 on the road on Saturday.
