Offensively challenged The Dog House defeat Blue Skywalker, 105.10-82.46

Ranking 10th in the league in points scored for the week, The Dog House were lucky to earn a win against an opponent that performed even worse, securing a 105.10-82.46 win over Blue Skywalker. The Dog House never trailed in this one after earning an 11.00-point lead on Thursday behind Odell Beckham Jr. (15.4 points).
