Ptičice earned a 10-point lead on Thursday, but RyKeRs held the lead the rest of the way. They were led by Tom Brady (23 points) and the Baltimore Ravens defense (21). Deshaun Watson (33 points) and Leonard Fournette (22) carried the flag for Ptičice in the loss. This marks the second time this season RyKeRs have beaten Ptičice, after winning 93-69 in their last matchup. RyKeRs (6-5-1) will look to build on their success against dolchezza, while Ptičice (5-7) attempt to get back in the win column against Shelpas UTD.
