The Fort Report: Mad Ants with Dramatic Road Win
The Fort Wayne Mad Ants, the Pacers' D-League affiliate, returned to action after the All-Star break last week. Fort Wayne went 1-2 on the week, falling to the Westchester Knicks and Rio Grande Valley Vipers before pulling off a dramatic road win over the Erie BayHawks.
With 15 games remaining in the regular season, the Mad Ants are 20-15. That record is the third-best in the Eastern Conference and places Fort Wayne in second place in the Central division. The top four teams in each conference (including both division winners) make the playoffs.
