Back-and-forth battle ends with Bad News Bears defeating The mystery machine in 120.42-95.22 runaway

What a whirlwind! After a back-and-forth matchup featuring three lead changes, Bad News Bears earned an easy victory over The mystery machine, rolling to a 120.42-95.22 win. The mystery machine pulled out to an early 8.30-point lead on Thursday. Bad News Bears came back to take the lead during the early round of games on Sunday, powered by stellar showings from Henry Ruggs III (20 points) and Darrell Henderson Jr. (15.7). Not to be deterred, The mystery machine got it going later that afternoon to take a 14.22-point lead behind Mike Evans (22 points) and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers defense (19). But Bad News Bears came back again later that night, as Patrick Mahomes (24.02 points) and Travis Kelce (20.4) put them back in the lead once and for all. Bad News Bears (2-0) will look to maintain their momentum against Gridiron Gladiators, while The mystery machine (1-1) will face off against Cant Touch This in an effort to get back on track.
