The Oklahoma City Blue (15-17) used a hot shooting night to defeat the South Bay Lakers (11-21), 148-113, on Tuesday night.

Oklahoma City set a new G League record with 32 made three-pointers in the game. Guards Devon Hall and Abdul Gaddy led the way for the Blue beyond the arc with six three-pointers apiece, while Vincent Edwards contributed five.

“I thought we executed and moved the ball really well,” Head Coach Grant Gibbs said. “Obviously, making shots helps, but I thought we were locked in from the beginning of the game. South Bay’s a difficult team to play against with their pace and their offensive weapons, but I thought we were pretty tight with our stuff defensively, and I was happy with our ball movement and willingness to pass.”
