The Mad Ants answered the question of if they’d be able to score enough in the wake of losing Andre Emmett. But it remains to be seen if they can win without him.
Despite getting 23 points from Matt Bouldin and 20 from Gary Talton, the Mad Ants lost 123-112 on Friday to the Delaware 87ers in Newark, Delaware.

The Erie BayHawks (16-22) bested the Canton Charge (22-17) 116-110 in the sixth and final meeting between the teams. The BayHawks used a 15-0 run in the third quarter to regain the lead and never looked back. Free throws
played a key factor in the victory as Erie went 32-34 from the line.
Despite Drew Crawford's eight straight points to open up the game, the Charge built a seven-point lead after seven lead changes. Canton finished the opening quarter with seven second chance points compared to Erie's zero, capitalizing on all three of their offensive rebounds.
The Charge lead would grow to as many as ten in the second quarter as Arinze Onuaku picked up where he left off two weeks ago when he tallied 23 points against the BayHawks. Erie was able to cut the game to four by halftime after Drew Crawford, Austin Daye and Seth Curry all scored double digits in the first 24 minutes. Canton outscored Erie 18-2 in second chance points for the half, outrebounding the BayHawks 22-14.
The BayHawks managed to take their first lead since the first quarter midway through the third frame, using a 15-0 run to take advantage. The Charge ended the quarter on an 8-2 run to cut Erie's lead to three.
Peyton Siva and Curry combined for five made threes in seven possessions to give the BayHawks their biggest lead of the game at ten. The Charge would cut it to three again with 1:30 remaining in the game. Canton and Erie traded points for the next minute and a half as Canton had possession with a chance to tie the game with the shot clock off. The BayHawks decided to intentionally foul Onuaku, who missed both free throw attempts. Erie went 6-6 from the line in the final seconds to grab a victory against the Charge for the first time this season.
Curry finished with a game high 33 points on 8 of 15 from three-point land. Siva followed with 21 of his own, his fifth 20+ game of the season. Canton's Onuaku led the Charge with 21 points and 14 rebounds, his 26th double-double in the last 33 games. James Singleton came off the bench to tally 19.
The BayHawks play their third of five straight home games Sunday at 2:00 PM against the division-leading Maine Red Claws for "Salute Our Troops" day.

The Santa Cruz Warriors defeated the Idaho Stampede 122-100 on Friday night to improve to 26-13 on the season, notching a seventh straight win. Santa Cruz was led by Darington Hobson, who recorded his second consecutive triple-double, and the third of his career. He finished with 28 points, 10 rebounds, and 10 assists. Mychel Thompson added 25 points, while Dominique Sutton notched 17 points and 6 rebounds in the victory.
The Stampede received a solid performance from Jack Cooley who recorded a double-double with 19 points and 12 rebounds. Idaho was without their leading scorer, forward Jerrelle Benimon, who signed a 10-day contract with the Utah Jazz earlier today.
The first quarter was a back-and-forth of trading baskets between Santa Cruz and Idaho, complete with four lead changes and five ties. The Stampede led the Warriors by as many as 6 points in the first quarter but could not hold onto the lead as the Warriors tied it up with a Darington Hobson bucket before the buzzer.
The teams would keep the score tight during the second quarter, but the Warriors would stay on top with a three-point edge heading into the break.
The tightly-contested battle continued into the third period with Santa Cruz holding a four-point lead moving into the final frame.
The Warriors raced ahead with a 15-4 run just minutes into the fourth quarter's start. Santa Cruz coasted to 22-point win over the Stampede, going 5-0 against Idaho this season. The Santa Cruz Warriors will host the Idaho Stampede again tomorrow night at 7:00 p.m. PST at Kaiser Permanente Arena. Fans can listen to the broadcast on the Santa Cruz Warriors flagship station, KION 1460AM/101.1FM, or catch the game on the NBA D-League's YouTube channel, via www.santacruzbasketball.com.
