MARCUS WILLIAMS OF PR PRIDE/K1X NETS HOME VICTORY IN HITS DEBUT
As if PR Pride/K1X couldn't pull out something new out of their bag of tricks, they did it again Saturday afternoon vs Money Train.
The 2-1 PR Pride/K1X squad took on the 1-2 Money Train Saturday afternoon in another high scoring affair. But just a couple of minutes of the first quarter, came walking in the park alongside Andre Barrett was former UConn and current Golden State Warrior star Marcus Williams.
It didn't take long for Barrett and Williams to sub into the game and join Satterfield in the three guarded backcourt. Money Train didn't look worried about the Prides' NBA triangle offense as Antawn Dobie and Corey "The Undertaker" took matters into their own hands. With Money Train up by five points at the half, 53-48, it looked to everyone in the crowd that the Pride was in for a very serious battle.
It does take a while for a player, especially a NBA player to get accustomed to the outdoor environment HITS presents with the heat and wind coming from the beach, and Marcus Williams finally started to settle down in the second half. Trying to find his niche' in the first half, Williams started looking for his shot and caught an awareness of who he was playing with in the second half. Becoming a playmaker and making some outrageous passes to his teammates Barrett and Satterfield officially introduced Marcus Williams into the Hoops in the Sun fray.
Money Train made the game interesting. Keeping the lead until the six minute mark in the fourth quarter, PR Pride/K1X started to make their run and by the time you looked at the scoreboard, they were on pace for a fourth straight 100 plus point scoring game. " The Undertaker " poured in 31 points and a game high 18 rebounds for his Money Train squad, as well as Antawn Dobie pouring in 29 points and 6 assists but the NBA triangle offense became too much for the Train to handle in the fourth quarter as PR Pride/K1X pulled away with a 127-125 victory, going to 3-1 on the season.
