Kings and Royals record latest wins

Kaieteur Sports – The Kevin ‘2Feet’ Joseph and Team13 planned Under23 basketball tournament which involves the five affiliated clubs to the Linden Amateur Basketball Association (LABA) will resume tonight (Wednesday) with two more matches at the Amelia’s Ward Hard Court in Linden.

Rain and the unavailability of the playing venue over the past weekend caused a push back in the preliminary round which is to determine the four teams to play in the semifinals.

Clubs contesting are Retrieve Raiders, Block 22 Flames, Victory Valley Royals, Central Mackenzie Kings and Block 22 Flames and in the latest round of matches played, Kings and Royals registered wins last Monday.

Tonight at 6.30pm Central Mackenzie Kings will face home side Amelia’s Ward Jets, while in the other game at 8.30pm Block 22 Flames are up against Retrieve Raiders and Block 22 Flames.

Central Mackenzie Kings scored an exciting 62-53 win over Retrieve Raiders after trailing 8-17, 29-34 and 38-44 but were able to rally past their rivals to win 62-53.

That come-back victory was hinged on an excellent team display by the Kings where three players recorder more than 10 points.

Jemol Semple was their top scorer with 17 points as he was ably supported by Jaren Watson 13 and Tyreese Arthur 11.

Once more for the Raiders their main scorer was Shemar Savoury who led the way netting 27 points.

Victory Valley Royals then continued their winning streak with an easy 57-34 win over Block 22 Flames.

For the Royals, Kobe Tappin got their top score of 27 game points and Immanuel LaRose 13 points.
