The Sleepy Bananas lose to Sal’s Fruit Cups in 244.5-240.5 battle

There's no way around it, The Sleepy Bananas underdelivered, at least compared to projections, as Sal’s Fruit Cups squeaked by for a 244.5-240.5 win.

Coach Talk

Sal’s Fruit Cups
We wonder if the GM of Sal’s Fruit Cups was feeling a bit squeamish this one? In a matchup that was ultimately decided by only 4 points, Robbie Gould (2-for-3 on the day) decided that going 3-for-3 on field goals would've been just a bit too boring. Remember folks, every point matters!
The Sleepy Bananas
A single missed field goal usually isn't cause for concern. But come on now, talk about impeccable timing: Matt Bryant went 1-for-2 on FGs instead of 2-for-2, and The Sleepy Bananas lost the matchup by 4 points. We'll let you do the math on that one.
