Congratulations to DeAndre Liggins, whose Sioux Falls Skyforce won the NBA D-League Championship last night with a 91-63 win over the Los Angeles D-Fenders. Liggins, the D-League Defensive Player of the Year, had 11 points, 10 rebounds, and a game-high six assists in the win, while former Tennessee star Jarnell Stokes took home MVP honors for his 25-point, 12-rebound performance.
“It’s everybody’s goal, to get to this point. And we’re here,” said Liggins in the game recap. “I’ve been around a great group of guys all year. I’m kind of sad that this [is] our last game, but I’m happy at the same time.”
Here's hoping Liggins can find a spot on an NBA roster next season. Here are his highlights from last night's win:
