Kool Kids Klub had the No. 1 scorer in the matchup with TE Evan Engram accumulating 20.35 points, the 18th-highest total in the league this week, but it wasn't enough to topple The NoBell Prize, who earned a 127.74-120.85 win. The NoBell Prize grabbed an early 0.45-point lead on Thursday. Kool Kids Klub bounced back to take the lead late afternoon Sunday, powered by Evan Engram (20.35 points) and Amari Cooper (18.1). Unphased, The NoBell Prize made a run later that night, as Tom Brady (25.64 points) and Stephen Gostkowski (16) put them back on top for good. The NoBell Prize (1-0) will look to build on their success against BtaD-, while Kool Kids Klub (0-1) take on One eyed Willie in an effort to earn their first victory.
