11) Woodward Avenue Warriors Projected Record: 9-13
A good assortment of talent, and a nice little niche developing a ton of Ghana players! Woodward makes his debut in Division III, and we'll see what he has going in the coming weeks. I will say with the competitiveness in this league he's gotsta be ready, otherwise he will get gobbled up.

Thanks for the welcome! It's awesome to see an active forum with a plethora of recognizable usernames here. When I got put in league one I immediately was like "Oh, its the usernames I saw coming up in YouTube videos when I first started the game." While I don't expect to do much this season, I think I can at least hang around for a while. I'm still feeling out what the economics are going to look like in Div3. I can already tell that I am going to get crushed on the boards, but not everyone can afford to pay prime Andre Drummond. I'll probably stand pat, keep training the core guys, and see where this season takes us!

I appreciate the Ghana shout out too! At one point I had a few people working together to develop purely Ghanaian players for U21/NT, but we never were able to actually get into a leadership role there because of the small voting population. It was a fun experiment, and at one point we had over 24 players being developed. Alas, we kind of gave up after not getting guys promoted who clearly were better than what was on the team, especially on the U21 side.

Day 2 Recaps:

Gunslingers Annihilate Kings in 74-Point Blowout!

My goodness! The Gunslingers just put on an absolute defensive clinic at The Ranch, completely dismantling the Social Security Kings in a 111-37 jaw-dropper.

The Kings simply had no answers, shooting a frigid 14.5% from the field (12-for-83) and an unbelievable 1-for-24 from three-point range.

The Gunslingers dominated every facet, moving the ball for 35 assists and owning the paint. M. Macolino was an absolute force, posting a monster double-double with 13 points, 16 rebounds, and 5 massive blocks. Center B. Alli nearly matched him with 11 boards of his own. R. Taylor (20 points) and M. Vasil (16 points) led the scoring barrage.

This statement win moves the Gunslingers to 1-1, while the Kings must regroup after falling to 1-1.

Peacocks Soar Past Rebels in High-Scoring Road Win! 🏀

The Pittsburgh Peacocks brought the offensive firepower to SW Rebels Arena, securing a decisive 129-104 road victory! It was raining buckets all night!

Pittsburgh absolutely dominated inside, led by monstrous double-doubles from H. Maluco (25 pts, 16 reb) and G. Škalec (24 pts, 17 reb, 3 blk). The ball movement was electric, with point guard A. Sannazuro dishing out 15 assists to go with his 21 points, and T. Opstrup adding 10 dimes and 15 points.

The Rebels fought hard, paced by an incredible 40-point explosion from G. Laflamme, who drained 8 three-pointers! However, the Peacocks' balanced attack and control of the boards (57-36 rebound advantage) proved too much.

The Peacocks climb to 1-1, while the Rebels remain winless at 0-2.

Asingratitos BC Outlasts Forza Jazz in Thrilling Shootout!

What a barnburner at JJ Apps Arena! Asingratitos BC remained undefeated, edging out Forza Jazz 122-117 in an absolute offensive explosion that had the 19,256 fans on the edge of their seats.

R. Chudyk was masterful for Asingratitos, dropping 31 points and dishing 12 assists, including six triples! The frontcourt was monstrous, with N. Say yong (18 pts, 19 reb) and D. Saavedra Quijano (17 pts, 18 reb) dominating the glass. I. Paez flirted with a triple-double (23 pts, 9 reb, 8 ast).

Forza Jazz fought valiantly, led by D. Daigle's 32 points and four players scoring over 20, including Z. Jordon (24 pts) and D. Neal (21 pts, 14 reb). T. Goldstein was immense defensively with 19 boards and 5 blocks.

Asingratitos improves to 2-0, while Forza Jazz falls to 1-1.

Mountain Eagles Defend Home Court, Ground SPIRITS!

The Mountain Eagles soared to victory at Dodge Arena, taking down AMC SPIRITS 90-75 in a nationally televised league matchup! Despite the SPIRITS playing with higher intensity, the Eagles' home crowd fueled a strong performance.

R. Lince was an absolute monster in the paint for the Eagles, putting up a massive 26 points, 12 rebounds, and swatting away 7 shots! What a defensive statement! C. Staley chipped in with 25 points, while T. Ouellette anchored the defense with 12 boards, 3 steals, and 2 blocks.

AMC SPIRITS got solid scoring from C. Monteil (23 pts) and C. Girón Ruiz (20 pts, 9 reb), but the Eagles' dominance on the glass (56-41 rebound advantage) proved too much.

The Eagles stay perfect at 2-0, while the SPIRITS fall to 1-1.

KDB Stays Perfect, Crushes Globo Gym with Rebounding Dominance!

KDB defended their home court with authority, cruising past Globo Gym 85-64 to remain undefeated! The KDB Arena crowd witnessed a display of absolute control on the boards.

Leading the charge was Power Forward Y. Heinke, who put up a staggering 15 points and a mind-blowing 22 rebounds, adding 5 assists and 3 blocks for good measure! WHAT A PERFORMANCE! The entire KDB frontcourt feasted, with W. Partridge (12 pts, 14 reb) and T. Havens (14 pts, 11 reb) also securing double-doubles. F. Jiafan added 18 points.

Globo Gym struggled mightily from the field, shooting just 28.7%. Despite 18 points each from B. Salgado, L. Dingfu, and C. Debackere, they couldn't overcome KDB's 60-47 rebounding advantage.

KDB moves to a perfect 2-0, while Globo Gym falls to 1-1.

Gunners Win Absolute SCORCHER Over Cardinals!

The scoreboard is smoking at Tundra Temple! The Green Bay Gunners outgunned the Fondy Cardinals in a ridiculous 149-131 track meet.

The Gunners' offense was unstoppable, shooting 61% and dishing out 35 assists. M. Bin-Sulayman was a legend, erupting for 36 points and 18 rebounds! Point guard M. Jackson was just as absurd, posting a 33-point, 14-assist double-double. W. Shou Mei (25 pts, 12 reb, 7 ast) and F. Dufour (22 pts, 9 ast, 4 stl) added to the onslaught.

The Cardinals, playing fast-paced, simply couldn't keep up despite shooting 17-for-33 from deep. D. Aliferovich (28 pts) and S. Batlak (25 pts, 7 reb, 7 ast) led the valiant effort.

The Gunners get their first win (1-1), while the Cardinals drop to 0-2.

Capitals Get First Win, Handle Janitor Crew at Home

The Broughton Capitals notched their first victory of the season, putting the clamps on Jim Almeidas Janitor Crew for a solid 98-77 win.

The Capitals' defense was the story, nabbing 14 steals and forcing 21 turnovers. M. Porter led the offensive charge with 26 points and 6 rebounds, while N. Burkett added 20 points and 5 assists. A. Noriega was a menace on D, snagging 4 steals.

The Janitor Crew fought hard on the glass (56-36 advantage) but couldn't overcome their sloppy play. M. Knight was a bright spot with 20 points, 10 rebounds, and 5 steals. Center M. Boyer also posted a big double-double with 16 points and 16 rebounds.

The Capitals (1-1) celebrate their first win, while the Janitor Crew (0-2) continues to search for answers.

Bricklayers Stay Perfect, Dominate Warriors on the Road!

The Bonham Bricklayers are on fire! They rolled into the M-1 Superdome and secured a commanding 106-86 victory over the Woodward Avenue Warriors, pushing their perfect record to 2-0.

The Bricklayers put on a team basketball clinic, dominating the glass (53-32) and moving the ball with purpose (33 assists). The scoring was beautifully balanced: K. Al-Hamdan led the charge with 28 points and 6 assists, while C. Donnelly added 20 points and 5 dimes. The frontcourt was a wall, with E. Berman (18 pts, 15 reb) and J. Gonzáles (9 pts, 15 reb) cleaning up inside.

The Warriors, led by Y. Diarra's 22 points, just couldn't match the visitors' firepower or intensity, falling to 0-2.

Great stuff! thank you

Great season previews and recaps all! While this has been an extremely competitive league the active owners also make it an extremely fun one! Best (or worst) of luck to you all as the season starts ramping up!

Yeah, I am trying to keep around some of my beloved u21 guys from last season, but their salaries jumped pretty high and is putting me in a weird spot. I am headed for a relegation series and potential demotion for sure. May make some moves here soon but we will see!
