Charge Regular Season Begins today!

The Cleveland Charge spent a few days in Las Vegas in the NBAs AT&T Winter showcase at Mandalay Bay. The showcase is an event the NBA created to give front office people a look at the young players in the league.

As an incentive, the winning team would receive $100,000. The eight team format had the #6 seeded Charge battling the third seed College Park Skyhawks (Atlanta’s G League team) in round 1.

 

Charge v Skyhawks

The Charge used Isaiah Mobley’s near triple double (30 points, 8 assists, 12 boards) to win the first game, 120-104. Guard Sharife Cooper dumped in 25 with 7 shares and Mamadi Diakite pumped in 25 to lead the Charge to a match up with Windy City Bulls in the semifinal game.

 

Here are the game highlights.

 

Charge v Bulls

 

The semifinal game got to the point where the first to 95 points would win. The Charge scored 94 points first but two chances late wouldn’t drop. The Windy City Bulls found new life and defeated the Charge with a late bucket from the top of the key.

 

All Showcase Team

 

 

Isaiah Mobley was named to the All Showcase Team. He joined Brandon Boston (Clippers), Tre Mann (OKC), Terry Taylor (Pacers), and Kenneth Lofton, Jr (Memphis). His highlights and others can be found here.

 

Charge Regular season starts today!

After the Showcase event, the regular season starts tonight with the game against the Grand Rapids Gold.

 

Joanna Radov, media coordinator, said the family atmosphere and ticket prices “make the Charge a fun, inexpensive way to spend the evening watching high-quality basketball.”
